Franklin Ave Baptist Church was one of the most vibrant churches of any stripe in New Orleans prior to Hurricane Katrina. This past Sunday marked their return and from the looks of it, you'd think they never left. It was always a joy to hear their pastor, Fred Luter Jr., preach in chapel at Southeastern when I was there. I hope that now that his church is back, he'll become the first African American president of the Southern Baptist Convention (which would be long overdue).
