Wherefore we labor, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.” II Corinthians 5:8-9 Dwight’s Story Dwight Henderson was born October 25, 1959 to the late Ruby Henderson and the late Amos Augustine in Monroe, Louisiana. He was baptized at an early age, and became a member of the Antioch M. B. Church, Lake Providence, LA., under the pastorate of the late Rev. E. D. Baldwin. Dwight was a kind-hearted, respectful person, who loved Jesus and others. He once boasted about reading the entire Bible.
