Garland F. Pierce and his loyal staff, I welcome all of you from across the connection and globe to Cape Town, South Africa at this UBUNTU Christian Education Summit. Mother Dr. Irene Moifoi Daniels and the “Can Do Team” of the wonderful good people of the Faithful, Fruitful, and Focused Fifteenth are honored to host this historic meeting. We welcome you to this historic fi rst connectional meeting sponsored by a general department of the AME Church to be held on the continent of Africa. I am so proud of our extraordinary director Rev. Garland Pierce, for his Pan African vision, loyalty, commitment, and his love for God’s people. We have worked hard to make your stay in Cape Town a memorable, mesmerizing, and blessed one that you will never forget for the rest of your life. Bisholp David Rwhynica Daniels, Jr. Presiding Prelate, Fifteenth Episcopal District I am excited about our theme, “Ubuntu”, based on Ephesians 4:12. The task of Chair, Commission on Christian Education Christian Education is to equip the saints for ministry and to build up the body of Christ. We all make up the body of Christ for genuine work of service. In this spirit of serious commitment and mission, this gathering has been designed to inspire, instruct, reinvigorate, and replenish us for excellent service in our Zion. I am praying for a mighty move of God during our time together so that all present will receive wisdom, supernatural anointing, and power from on high. I am believing that each of us will become well equipped disciples and agents to change lives, congregations, communities, nations, and the world. I decree and declare that we will leave better, stronger, abundantly anointed vessels of God and more determined to be true ambassadors of Christ in the saving and liberating Gospel of Jesus Christ in the world. Be at home among us, Bishop David Rwhynica Daniels, Jr. Presiding Prelate, Fifteenth Episcopal District Chair, Commission on Christian Education President, Global Development Council Host Bishop, Global Development Council General Assembly and Christian Education Summit 2019 Christian Education Summit | Pre-Conference 5 Greetings from the Executive Director To the Bishops and leaders of the church, both clergy and lay at every level, Christian educators, young adults, youth, my brothers and sisters in Christ, friends, and visitors, I greet you in the name of the Master Teacher, Jesus Christ! I add my welcome to that of our chair, Bishop David Rwhynica Daniels, Jr. I am overjoyed by your presence at this fi rst UBUNTU Christian Education Summit, a pre-conference to the Global Development Council General Assembly. We are excited and honored to bring the annual meeting of the Ministries in Christian Education to the continent of Africa. This is an important fi rst for our beloved denomination. We gather under the banner of the theme, UBUNTU. We base the theme on Ephesians 4:12, “…to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ.” As Methodists, we know connectionalism, so the Ubuntu Rev. Garland F. Pierce understanding, ”I am because we are; we are because I am,” is one that we Executive Director Department of Christian Education strive to embrace. We hope that as we gather as part of a global connection, we will allow this principle and spirit to shape our worship, our mutual learning, our fellowship, and our planning. We all have something to learn as well as to teach while we are here together, equipping others and ourselves for the work of ministry so that we can share the liberating and saving gospel of Jesus and work to bring justice and peace in God’s world. This theme frames our worship, plenaries, learning labs, and meetings. Again as expressed by our Chair, we are thankful to all who have made this gathering possible. We are thankful to every preacher, presenter, registrant, volunteer, and the staff members of the department and denomination, the supporting congregations, and the hotel for helping to make this possible. By name, we must thank Bishop Daniels for his support and encouragement as Chair. Likewise, this would not have been possible without the gracious hosting of him, Mother Dr. Irene Moifoi Daniels, Rev. Keith Links, Fifteenth Episcopal District Christian Education Director, the hard-working host planning committee, and the wonderfully faithful family of the Fifteenth Episcopal District. Let us worship! Let us learn! Let us reflect! Let us fellowship! Let us share! UBUNTU! Rev. Garland F.

  • Rethinking Pauline Hopkins
    Rethinking Pauline Hopkins: Plagiarism, Appropriation, and African American Cultural Production Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/alh/article/30/4/e3/5099108 by guest on 29 September 2021 Introduction, pp. e4–e8 By Richard Yarborough The Practice of Plagiarism in a Changing Context pp. e9–e13 By JoAnn Pavletich Black Livingstone: Pauline Hopkins, Of One Blood, and the Archives of Colonialism, pp. e14–e20 By Ira Dworkin Appropriating Tropes of Womanhood and Literary Passing in Pauline Hopkins’s Hagar’s Daughter, pp. e21–e27 By Lauren Dembowitz Introduction Richard Yarborough* Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/alh/article/30/4/e3/5099108 by guest on 29 September 2021 I recall first encountering Pauline Hopkins in graduate school in the mid-1970s. Conducting research on her work entailed tolerat- ing the eyestrain brought on by microfilm and barely legible photo- copies of the Colored American Magazine. I also vividly remember the appearance of the 1978 reprint edition of her novel Contending Forces (1900) in Southern Illinois University Press’s Lost American Fiction series. I experienced both gratification at the long-overdue attention the novel was garnering and also no little distress upon reading Gwendolyn Brooks’s afterword to the text. While acknowl- edging our “inevitable indebtedness” to Hopkins, Brooks renders this brutal judgment: “Often doth the brainwashed slave revere the modes and idolatries of the master. And Pauline Hopkins consis- tently proves herself a continuing slave, despite little bursts of righ- teous heat, throughout Contending Forces” (409, 404–405). This view of the novel as a limited, compromised achievement reflects the all-too-common lack at the time of a nuanced, informed engage- ment with much post-Reconstruction African American literature broadly and with that produced by African American women in particular.

  • Barber Final Dissertation
    The Gospel Horse in the Valley: Evangelical Slavery and Freedom in the Chattahoochee Valley, 1821-1877 by Stephen Presley Barber A dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama May 9, 2011 Keywords: Slavery, Religion, Baptists, Methodists, Georgia Copyright 2011 by Stephen Presley Barber Approved by Charles A. Israel, Chair, Associate Professor of History Kenneth W. Noe, Draughon Professor of History Anthony G. Carey, Associate Professor of History Abstract This dissertation examines the introduction of evangelical religion into the Chattahoochee Valley of Georgia during the frontier era, the formation and characteristics of biracial churches during the antebellum period, and the post-bellum racial separation and organization of independent black churches. It will document the attitudes, ideas, and actions of evangelicals as they formed, organized, and maintained biracial churches in the Chattahoochee Valley. In these churches, black and white evangelicals practiced “evangelical slavery,” defined as the manifestation of chattel slavery in the context of evangelical Christianity as practiced by slaveholders and slaves. This study also discloses the complexities of interactions of blacks and whites and their experiences as they grappled with the uncertainties and conflict brought about by emancipation. This dissertation is the first narrative of the religious history of the Chattahoochee Valley from the beginnings of white settlement to the end of Reconstruction. It is a subset of larger works on southern religion, but uniquely examines the continuity of southern evangelical religion between the time of the invasion of the Chattahoochee Valley by Methodist missionaries in 1821 and the practically complete institutional religious separation by 1877, thus augmenting and challenging previous interpretations of processes and chronology by revealing local patterns of behavior by black and white southern evangelicals.

"To End This Day of Strife": Churchwomen and the Campaign for Integration, 1920-1970 Abstract "'To End This Day of Strife': Churchwomen and the Campaign for Integration, 1920-1970," explores the development and significance of a race relations agenda within a national interdenominational and interracial organization of women, known today as Church Women United (CWU). This project examines the role the organization played in the expansion of a moral language of race that reached across region, race and denomination. The eysk to this expansion were twofold: First, the participation of African American churchwomen in the organization from its beginnings stimulated dialogue and action; and second, the missionary legacy of white churchwomen, which, despite its initial imperialist assumptions, introduced churchwomen to a religious idiom and intellectual experience that embraced cultural diversity.

  • Yearbook of American Churches
    ^ ^' 1918 Year Book of the Churches COVERING THE YEAR 1917 Edited by CLYDE F. ARMITAGE Assistant Secretary of the Federal Covincil, Washington, D. C. Published for The Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America BY The Missionary Education Movement New York 1918 » Copyright, 191 8, by The Federal Council of the Churches of Christ IN America FOREWORD The Year Book of the Churches succeeds the Federal Council Year Book and will be issued annually. The Directory of Religious Bodies includes all denominations recognized by the Federal Census. The Directory of Inter- church Bodies contains three times the number of organizations formerly treated. Most of these bodies publish Year Books with other data of value. Part II, General Information, is largely given to information connected with the war. The directories and statistics are official. The statistics con- cerning Churches and Sunday Schools are reprinted from the United States Census Bureau findings and are offered in com- parison with the Census of religious bodies made by the Federal Bureau of the Census ten years ago. The treatment of the cooperation of the Churches and Inter- Church Bodies officially in the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America, is especially significant because the war has increased the necessity of federating religious activities. Books of value in nearly every phase of Christian work, published by the Federal Council, are listed as a bibliography. The general arrangement will be the same in future volumes as in this one, but it is expected that additional material will be offered in successive issues. Each division of the book is preceded by a table of the material treated, which, with the table of contents of the book and the complete cross index, will enable the reader to find every topic readily.
