Jones, Campbellsville, KY; and Micah Spicer, Wingo, KY By Elena Groholske News from Campbellsville University CAMPBELLSVILLE, KY - For the ninth year in a row, Campbellsville University has awarded the prestigious Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award. "Sullivan was a lawyer, devout Christian, mediator, powerful and appealing orator, a courageous citizen during perilous times, a noted philanthropist and a devoted family man," Dr. Michael V. Carter, president of Campbellsville University, said at commencement. This year's community recipient is Dr. James E. Jones of Campbellsville. He is a member of the CU Board of Trustees and Church Relations Council. Jones is a part-time assistant in the Office of Church and External Relations, adjunct faculty member in the School of Theology, all while serving his third term as an elected member of the Taylor County Fiscal Court.

Jones holds bachelor of divinity and doctor of ministry degrees from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, JT. He received an honorary doctorate degree from CU in 2001. Jones is the pastor of Pleasant Hill Baptist Church in Campbellsville, Ky. He was the pastor of Campbellsville Baptist Church for more than 20 years. He has served as pastor of a number of churches in Kentucky, Alabama and Indiana.

He has been awarded the honor of Campbellsville-Taylor County Chamber of Commerce Citizen of the Year twice. "Dr. Jones has a pastor's heart, a servant's humility and the passion of an evangelist and missionary," said Carter. "He is one of the fine pulpiteers of Southern Baptist life today. He has demonstrated servant leadership all of his life and continues to do so to this very day as he gives of himself in service to his Lord, his family and his community." He and his wife, Martha, have three children: Angela, Darlene and Byron, five grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Micah Spicer is student recipient This year's student recipient is Micah Spicer from Wingo, Ky. in far western Kentucky.

He has participated in the ministerial education days in Taylor County and Liberty Baptist Associations since his first year at CU.

Spicer served as a pastoral ministries intern with Dr. Skip Alexander, former pastor at Campbellsville Baptist Church and a legislative internship with State Rep. Jody Richards in Frankfort, KY. He was named 2011 "Mr. Campbellsville" during the spring Honors and Awards Day chapel program. "Micah has demonstrated a spirit of Christian servant leadership while at CU," said Carter.
