Dr. Crystal Bright, a native of Swainsboro, recently gave her first sermon at Simon Temple A.M.E. Zion Church in Fayetteville, N.C. Her sermon was entitled “Ready or Not, Here I Come,” coming from the scriptural text Matthew 13:24-30. Dr. Bright attended William Grove Holiness Church of the Living God as a youth, and she accepted God as her Savior at an early age. She engaged in her first public speech at the age of 16 at First Baptist Church in Stillmore, where she now serves on the usher board as a member and secretary.
She is certainly living up to the title given to her by her graduating class, “Most Likely to Succeed.” She participated in Dual Enrollment with East Georgia College while in high school and earned her Bachelor of Science degree from Savannah State University, where she graduated Summa Cum Laude in 2001. She earned several academic awards while in college and is a proud member of Alpha Kappa Alpha. In 2006, she graduated with honors and earned her Doctorate of Medicine degree from Meharry Medical College in Nashville, Tenn. She is currently completing a residency in family medicine.
She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jessie Bright, Sr., from Swainsboro. She has one brother, Jessie Bright, Jr., from Lithia Springs. She is the granddaughter of Elder Mozelle Steely and Mr. St. Mark Bright, Sr. of Swainsboro, Mr. and Mrs. Issac Culver, Jr. of Glenwood and the late Mr. and Mrs. Luther Gillis, Sr.
