Rev. Luke Davis Street Naming


Sister Germaine Fritz, OSB, President and Kenneth Jennings, Principal, of BA joined Mrs. Addie Davis, her daughter Ericka, along with family and friends at the recent street renaming dedication ceremony for her husband, Bishop Luke Davis on Sunday August 8 10:00 at Greater Harvest Baptist Church (13Ave and 15thSt). The Rev. Luke Davis of Newark’s Greater Harvest Baptist Church was a dear friend of Benedictine Academy and father to our graduate, Ericka. He was a man of deep faith and wisdom serving on BA's Board of Trustees, as Chaplain to the local police force, as well as Shepherd of the Greater Harvest Baptist Church. Rev. Luke Davis Street stands alongside the street of Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., two great men of God in our lives. How blessed are we at Benedictine Academy to have listened with the ear of our hearts and walked with our beloved Bishop Luke Davis, a man full of God's grace.
