The bill, H. 5499, is a concurrent resolution introduced in the South Carolina General Assembly to recognize and honor the pastors and congregation of Right Direction Church International (RDCI) of Columbia for their thirty years of ministry and service. The resolution highlights the church's journey, beginning as Right Direction Christian Center in 1995 with a small Bible study group led by Pastors Herbert and Marcia Bailey. Over the years, the church has experienced significant growth, moving to various locations, expanding its facilities, and establishing additional campuses in Orangeburg and Florence. The resolution also notes the church's commitment to community service and its various programs aimed at empowering individuals through faith-based teachings.
In celebration of its thirtieth anniversary, RDCI is set to host a special gala on May 2, 2026, featuring acclaimed psalmist Micah Stampley, along with an Anniversary Service on April 26, 2026, with guest speaker Dr. Charles Jackson. The resolution concludes by expressing the General Assembly's congratulations to the church and its members for their dedication to spreading the gospel and their contributions to the community over the past three decades. A copy of the resolution will be presented to Right Direction Church International.
