The Pilgrim Messenger
It was in October, 2005, when the Rev.
Dr. Kenneth R. Board accepted the invitation
to become Senior Pastor of historic Pilgrim
Baptist Church in Rockford, Illinois.
To celebrate this fifth pastoral anniver-
sary, Pastor Board and First Lady Marilyn
Board were feted during a dinner at Pilgrim on
Friday evening, October 15, and during two
worship services on Sunday, October 17.
Prior to his pastorate at Pilgrim, Pastor
Board served as an Assistant Pastor at the
historic Ebenezer Baptist Church of Atlanta,
Georgia, and spent over 20 years in various
management positions at BellSouth and AT&T.
His formal training includes a BBA in Business
Management from the University of Louisiana
at Monroe and a Master of Divinity and a
Doctorate of Ministry from the Morehouse
School of Religion, Interdenominational Theo-
logical Center in Atlanta, Georgia.
Pastor Board wasted no time in becoming
oriented to Rockford’s climate as well as its
community. Currently, he is also an adjunct
professor at Northern Baptist Theological
Seminary where he teaches two classes. He
serves on the boards of Zion Development;
Pilgrim’s Promise CDC; National Ministries and
General Board of the American Baptist
Churches; and he is a founding member of
Alignment Rockford. He is also an active
member of the Rockford Ministers’ Fellowship,
the Rockford Rotary, and the Rockford Charter
School Initiative Steering Committee.
The Boards have five children, and Mrs.
Board teaches at Eisenhower Middle School.
Above, Pastor and First Lady Board are
shown at the conclusion of the Sunday
afternoon worship celebration where the
sermon was delivered by
Rev. Calvin Malone (photo below), Pastor
of Jerusalem Baptist Church. Pastor
Malone was introduced by his wife and
“best friend,” Dr. Lisa M. Malone.
Jerusalem's musicians, choir, and members
took the celebration to the highest
level of praise and worship!
The morning worship service was
conducted by Pilgrim’s Ministers (photos
below) with Minister Carl L. Towns
delivering the message.
