2003 at Aiken, SC. A man for all seasons, he was best known in Aiken as
a hunter and outdoorsman. Yet, prior to coming to Aiken in 1999, he was
known as an outstanding preacher who spoke all over the world and was responsible
for bringing the gospel message to thousands. He was born Dec. 6, 1930

a mater’s degree in theology. His further education included doctoral studies

pastor of Austinville Union Church in Austinville. He was dearly loved
by those in whose churches he served [both small and large churches in
PA and NJ]. In Michigan he was senior pastor of Highland Park Baptist Church

that time is was the largest conservative Baptist church in the nation.
He was also a founding pastor of Rolling Hills Baptist Church in Fayetteville,
GA. He was a member of the executive board of the Southern Baptist Convention
of New Jersey. Rev. Brown was a member of First Baptist Church, North Augusta,
