Frederick Douglass Haynes, III, is a prophetic pastor, passionate leader, social activist, and eloquent orator and educator engaged in preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ, fighting against racial injustice; committed to economic justice and empowerment in under-served communities
and touching and transforming the lives of the disenfranchised. For 31 years, Dr. Haynes has
served as a visionary and innovative senior pastor of Friendship-West Baptist Church in Dallas,
Texas. Under his servant leadership, the ministry and membership have grown from less than
100 members in 1983 to over 12,000.
Dr. Haynes was born in Dallas, TX and grew up in San Francisco, California. He is the grandson
and son of socially conscious and active pastors. Haynes graduated, with honors, from Bishop
College in 1982 with a B.A. degree in Religion and English. He earned a Masters of Divinity degree from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. In 2005, he earned a Doctorate in Ministry from the Graduate Theological Foundation where he was afforded the opportunity to study
at Christ Church, Oxford University in Oxford England.
As a reflection of Dr. Haynes' commitment to community transformation and social consciousness, he serves in various leadership capacities in organizations that champion social change
and education. He also serves as a member of the Board of Trustees of Paul Quinn College in
Dallas, Texas where he has also served as an adjunct professor.
The community outreach of Dr. Haynes has created opportunities for him to address large audiences via radio. He hosted Freddy Haynes Unscripted; the tag line was "edutainment for community empowerment" on Radio One's 94.5, KSOUL, a local radio show in Dallas. The show debuted at number one in its time slot in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. He gave the
"Inspirational Vitamin" as the concluding voice on K104’s Skip Murphy Morning Show for over 7
years and for 10 years has given the message on the Praise Break for the nationally syndicated
Rickey Smiley Morning Show, reaching over 70 cities. It should be noted that both of these
shows have a hip hop radio format, but because of the ability of Haynes to reach young people,
he was asked to give inspirational messages during these shows.
Dr. Haynes is married to Debra Peek-Haynes, founder and President of Quorum Commercial, a
commercial real estate firm. They are the proud parents of Abeni Jewel Haynes.

Do you know how to save someone’s life? Get the facts.
Howard County Fire and Rescue’s CPR Team will be at SJBC on
the following Saturday’s from 9 a.m.—Noon:
Aug. 8th and Oct. 10th.
CPR is not on the job training; don’t wait until it’s too late!
The Facts:
Sudden Cardiac Arrest is when someone unexpectedly collapses, and their heart stops. They’re not
breathing.
They need CPR immediately.
It happens nearly 400,000 times a year to people of all ages, races, and health conditions.
The victim’s chance of survival decreases every minute without CPR, and after 10 minutes with no intervention your loved one is gone.
CPR & AED is the true life saving combination.

deacon will send you a post card announcing the session date. No need to do anything until your invitation comes, but when it does, please make sure to mark your calendar so you can attend.
After today's services, members assigned to Dea. Merrick and Dea. Snell are meeting in the
Fellowship Hall. Signs will direct you to their meeting rooms.
Next week, Sun., Aug. 2nd, members assigned to Dea. Jones and Dea. Robinson are meeting after each
