A Letter from guest commentator, Missionary Sharon Curry
I wish I could describe in a few short words the amazing work that God has been doing in the past few weeks. I have been on a whirlwind of travel from Big Tent in Indianapolis to a few days of R&R in Tennessee, to two weeks of Ecumenical training in Toronto, and now, I am “resting” in Louisville at the PCUSA portion of orientation training for my new position as Health and Development Consultant for South Sudan – 8 to 10 hours a day of training and fellowship with PCUSA World Mission staff.Read More »Greetings from Hot and Sunny Louisville

Our next destination was Selma. Along the way we stopped at the memorial for Viola Liuzzo, the only white woman martyred during the civil rights era. By this time in our trip, the red clover was nearing full bloom, and the sides of the roadway were blanketed in bright red.

Someone (or several someones) suggested that I write a blog detailing the St. Stephen Freedom Road field trip. Yes, I thought; that needs to be done so that others might share this adventure.
I was privileged to lead a class at St. Stephen during January and February entitled “Freedom Road: The Struggle for Civil Rights in Black America in the 1950s and 1960s.” After teaching many years in diverse venues (university, police academy, church) I can say without equivocation that this was the most fulfilling class I ever taught. Much of the credit for that goes to the participants whose enthusiasm for the subject was an arterial elixir for me. Much of it also goes to having taken the capstone field trip—Beth Fultz’s suggestion.Read More »Traveling Down Freedom Road – part one
