As some of you know, I am on the Executive Board of the International Youth Department of the S.D. James Evangelistic Association, Inc. and its Pentecostal Churches (World-Wide). This Summer, Youth from our church were able to attend a great Youth Congress in Memphis, Tennessee.
The Theme for this Youth Congress was, "Developing Kingdom Character".
Our children were able to not only see different culturally enhancing places, but they were able to have interacting with individuals who have made history. People like:
Rev. Samuel "Billy" Kyles speaks with Dr. James. |
Rev Samuel "Billy" Kyles was a close friend of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. In
Fact, Dr. King, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Andrew Young, Dr. Ralph Albernathy were on their way to eat dinner at the
home of Rev. Kyles, when Dr. King was
assassinated. Dr. King was staying at the Lorriane Motel getting ready to speak at a rally for the Memphis Sanitation Workers. Dr. Kyles told the young people present about the events that took place that evening. Everyone was riveted to their seats as he spoke.
Delegates pause to take a group picture. Our children and delegates represented very well. We're very proud of them. |

Delegates got the chance to visit the now famous Lorraine Motel. Many people pass thru its doors every day. There have been additions to the motel and now it is the
Civil Rights Museum. It was fascinating to walk through the actual places where Dr. King walked and sleep. It was even more mind blowing to actually stand where James Earl Ray stood and fired his death shot that took the life of Dr. King. A voice was silenced, but not the dream. As delegates walked through the Civil Rights Museum, they saw and heard many life changing artifacts. I'm sure our children will never be the same.
The Tomb of Bishop Charles H. Mason is placed within Mason's Temple. We were able to go and pay our respect. |
