Negro Pastor Takes Over L. A. Ex-White Church
In Los Angeles the new Negro pastor of the former all white Normandie Avenue Methodist Church addressed about 1,000 worshippers on his first day, praising the congregation as Bishop Kennedy announced the historic appointment. The church, once 253 members in 1937, had dwindled to 43 last month before the change, which drew a white walkout and an interracial turnout for the service. The event marked the first Negro pastor to lead an all white church in the Southern California Arizona conference, with cameras recording the service and many attendees from other area Methodist churches showing support.
