“For many years, I saw Dr. Bobby Mullins faithfully lead Central Baptist Church of Oak Ridge, TN, and the church was fortunate to have such a solid, Christ-led pastor. However, Dr. Mullins leadership did not remain within the walls of Central Baptist. As mayor of Oak Ridge, I had the great pleasure of seeing Dr. Mullins also lead our community at-large in many ways. He volunteered often to lead our invocation at City Council meetings, to provide a message at a community event, or to pray for God’s blessings on a community activity. In a town full of people of many faiths, Dr. Mullins reached out to everyone, and gained their respect while remaining true to his own beliefs. This rare combination of faithfulness and compassion was a blessing to every member of our community.” David Bradshaw Mayor (2001-2007) Oak Ridge, Tennessee “Dr. Bobby Mullins was my pastor for over five years, but that does not quite say it all. He was my spiritual advisor, family counselor, supporter and trusted friend. He baptized me and several members of my family. Our family loved and relied on his guidance from the first day we met. There is a spiritual void in our lives since we lost him as our Pastor.” Jane Miller Mayor Pro Tem Oak Ridge, Tennessee Children’s Sunday School Teacher and member of Central Baptist Church, Oak Ridge "As Principal of Oak Ridge High School, I was very thankful for the support that was offered to our school by Dr. Bobby Mullins, during the six years he was Senior Pastor of Central Baptist Church. Dr. Mullins showed a tremendous amount of patience and understanding as a neighbor to a large, active high school which recently underwent massive construction. Always eager to help in any way, Dr. Mullins offered the church’s parking lot to our displaced student drivers during construction, and continued to do so even though our project was completed. Dr. Mullins often attended our athletic events and was very supportive of school initiatives. On a personal level I always found Dr. Mullins to be sincere and compassionate. In addition, Dr. Mullins was my parents’ pastor, and I know that they have extremely high regard for him. Our school and community were the fortunate recipients of Dr. Mullins’ kindness and dedication." Chuck Carringer Principal Oak Ridge High School |
