Bishop TD Jakes Preaches at Bishop Long’s 24th Anniversary Celebration
This service was especially for Bishop Eddie Long and his New Birth Missionary Baptist Church as they celebrate Long’s 24 years in ministry. Though two of Long’s accusers, Jamal Parris and Spencer LeGrande spoke out in the news just days ago, Bishop Eddie Long was determined to go forth despite the distractions.
The choir comes forth and sings “Hosanna, We Worship You”. We notice the choir stand was more full than usual as they wore white shirts under black vests that were branded with the New Birth emblem on the left side of their chest.

Bishop Eddie Long Statement
Bishop Long Responds to Accusers While Preparing for 24th Pastoral Anniversary on August 28th
It appears that Bishop Eddie Long may be trying to take the high road in the recent talks from two of his accusers, Jamal Parris and Spencer LeGrande.
Parris and LeGrande say they plan to publish a tell all book detailing all of the secrets the bishop would not want to have known to the public. Though they realize speaking out violates settlement agreements and puts their money at risk, they appear to be confident, for now, that they know what they want to do.
As for Bishop Long, he released a statement in response and wants to move on. He has other things on his mind like celebrating 24 years in the ministry at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church. The special church service for his pastoral anniversary will be on August 28th at New Birth Church at 9:30 a.m.
Guest speaker will be his ‘spirtual father’, Bishop TD Jakes.
Stay tuned for updated news on the anniversary service for Bishop Eddie Long that will be posted here.
Below, you can read Bishop Long’s official statement and response to two of his accusers, Jamal Parris and Spencer LeGrande:
New Birth Members, We have a long history of dutifully serving those in need in the local and global communities and we will continue to do so. We are committed to the calling of a strong, viable and relevant ministry of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, we are in the media again and people are wondering what I am going to say. All I have to say is what we stated earlier. All parties involved decided to resolve the civil cases out of court. The decision was made to bring closure to this matter and allow us to move forward with the plans God has for this ministry. I will continue to honor and abide by my commitment of confidentiality and restraint as it relates to the resolution of the civil litigation and will not be diverted from the important work of the ministry. I thank God for your faithful support of my journey to South Africa where thousands where blessed and more than 700 people gave their lives to Christ. We also were able to sow more support into the HIV/AIDS Hospice in Johannesburg that we partnered with last year. We built a wonderful bridge of relationships with pastors and community leaders to further establish the Kingdom and bless others. I love you and thank you for your continued commitment and dedication.Your Pastor, Bishop Eddie L. Long

Jamal Parris and Spencer LeGrande have agreed to a sit-down interview with Channel 2 investigative reporter Jodie Fleischer inside a Miami hotel late last week. They know by speaking about the case now, they risk losing that money, but said it’s worth it because it’s more important for everyone to know the truth.
Here’s the interview from Channel 2:
“It’s just not enough anymore. I thought I could cover the pain up. I thought I could move, start over and everything will go away. I was terribly wrong,” Parris said.

Bishop Long and Apostle Avila Had Disagreement over Taylor Long’s Education
We had a staff member watch the sermon of Bishop Long’s church New Birth on last Sunday. We didn’t think much of it when Bishop Long stated Apostle Raul Avila disagreed with Long’s daughter Taylor going to a public university. But in the wake of his daughter not being permitted to march at her high school graduation, we thought it had some significance.
