The Rev. Dr. Marion Platt will be our guest speaker at a Combined Adult Sunday School in the Kinloch Room at 10:00 am on Sunday, September 25. 

Reverend Dr. Marion Platt is the sixth Executive Director and Pastor of Star Gospel Mission’s 117 year history. A native of Charleston, Marion served two enlistments as a U.S. Army infantryman before embarking on a nineteen-year ministry with The Salvation Army. He has held executive, academic, and pastoral roles in several cities across the South; he earned his doctoral degree from Trevecca Nazarene University (Nashville) and is a sought-after lecturer, evangelist, and revivalist. Marion has been a Rotarian for sixteen years, is Vice-President of the Southern Organization for Human Services, and serves on the Faith-Based Advisory Council of the International African American Museum in Charleston.

Pastor Marion is father to Dina, Josh, & Zion, husband to Ev, and neighbor to everyone.  When he isn’t serving others, he can be found fishing in a local creek, running long distances in the sun, fussing over his vegetable garden, or quietly listening to jazz music.
