Mrs McKinney Family Focused Leader in Church Work
Mrs Wade McKinney balances national church leadership with home life shaping her four children who all pursued college and postgraduate studies. She is the first Negro to reach a high level post with the American Baptist Convention as second vice president and serves in multiple Baptist and interdenominational boards. Her husband pastors Antioch Baptist Church as she directs the choir and advocates for women and youth, while a past spellman student sought a singing career before family priorities became central. Her children include Wade H Jr of Urban League Milwaukee and Samuel B a Seattle minister, with twins Virginia Henderson and Mary Edmonds linked to Navy and state school roles.
