Eddie Jordan

“Faith, prayer and hope have risen above the pain, setbacks and discouragement.”

Rev. Eddie Jordan is the pastor of New Light Baptist Church. A clot in his right leg led to kidney damage that in 2016 caused Eddie to begin relying on eight hours of dialysis per day to stay alive on the kidney transplant waiting list.

A special gospel concert event on April 12 will benefit Help Hope Live in honor of Eddie. All concert expenses have been covered by members of the community. The concert will celebrate not just the power of community but the strength of Eddie’s faith.

“Jordan is deeply touched by the efforts of Deydra and Robert Williams and all the other people who are making the concert possible.”
