BLACK HISTORY MONTH
A CENTURY OF BLACK LIFE, HISTORY AND CULTURE
The theme for Black History Month in 2015 is "A Century of Black Life,
History and Culture"; chronicling the important contributions by AfricanAmericans to art, literature, sports and pop culture.
In the early 20th century,
the rise of a totally new
form of music -- jazz -can be traced back to
African Americans of the
post-World
War
I
generation.
This
was
closely followed by the
Harlem Renaissance that
introduced the voices of
African American writers
and artists to the national
conversation.
By the 1960's, the African American museum movement saw the opening of
nationwide centers exhibiting the advances made by African Americans in
art, history, and science -- culminating in the Smithsonian's National
Museum of African American History and Culture.

Doo wop, rock n' roll, and hip hop can all trace their roots to the African
American experience. Legendary sports figures, as well as artists, musicians,
actors and actresses also have undeniably contributed to American culture as
their influence continues to spread worldwide.
The Web is a great place to find out more about Black History – in poetry,
literature, the arts, sciences, sports and entertainment – making Black
History month a time of fun, celebration, and learning. Here are some links
to get you started.

Where does worship
begin
at
SCBC?
Surprisingly, it actually begins with parking.
Each and every Sunday, the Parking Ministry
Team has the distinct opportunity to make a
positive impression on our worshippers. This
is the ministry team that influences every
person who drives to our church. To regular
attendees or members, they are the first to
extend a warm, friendly greeting. To guests,
they are a very important first impression of
our church.
The Parking Ministry exists to make
SCBC a safer, more convenient place for
people to fellowship and visit. In snow, rain,
heat or gloom of night, our Parking
Attendants are busy completing their
appointed tasks. Their responsibilities include:
~Managing the flow of traffic by
ushering cars into spaces in a safe and feasible
manner
~Protecting the safety of our
pedestrians
~Ensuring that handicapped parking
areas are only used by people with required
stickers or passes
~Providing easy access from the
parking lot to the church building

COME AND

AWHILE
Congregational
Spirituality
Corner
To hear God call our name awes us. To
consider facing such an experience without
trembling knees is unthinkable. To stand
before the One, the author of all that exists,
stretches our imaginations to the breaking
point. Then to have that One speak our name
transforms and changes life. Jesus, too, heard
the voice from heaven saying what he already
knew. He was God’s beloved. What a
wonderful message! To be the beloved child
of the Creator. To know one is loved like that
transforms and prepares us for anything.
Perhaps that is why the Gospels tell us that
Jesus left the baptismal service and God’s
affirming voice to go into the desert to be
tempted by Satan. Jesus prevailed because he
remembered the voice; he remembered who
he was and who was with him.
The biblical record clearly affirms the
fact that God knows us and calls us by name
as well. We are not strangers or aliens to God.
We are each and all God’s beloved. We have
as our lover the Creator and Master of all that
exists. The One who calls us beloved is also
the one who knows us so intimately and well
that even the number of hairs on our head is
known.
To remember who creates us and
recreates, who calls us again and again, who
knows us completely, and who loves us
unconditionally is to be prepared, as Jesus
was, for all that is to come. We need have no
fear of today or anxiety about tomorrow. We
belong to God who claims us as beloved
children and holds us close in the embrace of
strength and love. Listen and remember today
that God calls your name and be transformed
and sustained in all that awaits you.

WHATZ UP FOR KINGDOM KIDZ
“CHRISTIAN HEROES IN THE
SPOTLIGHT”
Over the next few weeks in Children’s Church and
during Wednesday Night Bible Study, the Kingdom
Kidz Children’s Ministry will be celebrating Black
History Month by introducing our children to the
lives of prominent African American Christians who
have made a significant mark in African American
history. Each informative and thought provoking
lesson will highlight the life changing achievements
of the African American Christian which was made
possible due to the strength of each hero’s Christian
character.
The Christian heroes of faith that we will study are
male and female, married and single, from Africa and
from the U. S., evangelists, a musician and a brain
surgeon.
Through their lives many themes will be explored to
include racial injustice, social activism, and the
importance of generosity, evangelism, worship and
praise. It is the hope of the Kingdom Kidz Children
Ministry leaders that learning about these individuals
will bring an appreciation and awareness of the
contributions made by African American Christian
heroes while building a sense of pride that will inspire
each child to leave a legacy of greatness for future
generations.
Join us each week as we study the lives of Samuel
Morris (Evangelist from Africa), Amanda Smith
(American Evangelist to the World), Thomas A.
Dorsey (The Father of Gospel Music), Harriet
Tubman (Conductor of the Underground Railroad),
George Washington Carver (The Man Who Saved
the South From Poverty), Mary McLeod Bethune
(Teacher of Head, Hands, and Heart), and Ben
Carson (the Surgeon They Called “Dummy”).
“My hope for my children must be that they respond
to the still, small voice of God in their own hearts.”
