Oh.
Don't forget Calvary; another indy church pastored now by Marvin Hicks in his sunset years.
My ex-father-in-law pastored Smokey Cove for many years.
Go on up the road from Oretta - pastored a long time by A. D. Spears' late father-in-law and Smokey Cove and you're in Singer.
Of course, when you get to Singer you are out of Section 4 and into Section 6 so maybe we've gone as far as we need to up Highway 27.
From DeQuincy on up to DeRidder and further north on that western edge of Louisiana along the Sabine River, it's a different world.
That part of the world was mostly Spanish territory and was not part of the original Louisiana purchase.
Drive just a few miles out of Sulphur north on Highway 27 and all of a sudden, you've left Cajun country far behind.

That's the truth!!!!! I'm afraid I never did quite fit in.
My sister lives in Sulphur...they go to Bro. Upton's church. Years ago, my parents attended Bro. Carl Ballestero's.
