HARTFORD MEMORIAL BAPTIST CHURCH A BRIEF HISTORY Hartford Memorial Baptist Church celebrates 97 years of loving God and serving the world community. The Rev. Edgar Wendell Edwards served as founding pastor from 1917 to 1920 when he relocated to Chicago. After a diligent search, the Church called the Rev. Charles A. Hill Sr., assistant to the Rev. Robert L. Bradby Sr., of Detroit’s historic Second Baptist Church. Installed as pastor in November of 1920, he served for 48 years until his retirement on his 75 th Birthday, April 28, 1968. During his progressive pastorate, Dr. Hill built new church facilities on the corner of Hartford and Milford and subsequently, a community and recreation facility. He was a strong supporter of organized labor; UAW Ford Local 600 was organized at Hartford Church. An outspoken champion of civil rights in the difficult days before the Civil Rights Movement, Dr. Hill was at the forefront of the struggle for equality in the 1930s, ‘40s and ‘50s. He was one of the first Blacks to run for the Detroit City Council. Courageously, he opened the Hartford pulpit to such nonconformists as W.E.B. DuBois and Paul Robeson. On April 6, 1969, Hartford gleefully received its son, Charles Gilchrist Adams, as pastor of the church in which he had been reared, indoctrinated, baptized, licensed, ordained and married. At that time, Dr. Adams, an honors graduate of the University of Michigan and Harvard Divinity School, had just begun his seventh year as pastor of the historic Concord Baptist Church in Boston, New England’s largest African American congregation. Having burned the old mortgage in 1971, Dr. Adams led Hartford into the current James Couzens’ facilities on April 10, 1977; under his strong and vigorous leadership, this mortgage was burned in 1983, nine years ahead of time. With an ever increasing church family, Hartford has become one of the largest church congregations in Detroit. Widely known for its music ministry, Hartford boasts of the largest pipe organ built by a Black church. Choir loft expansions, upgraded audio/video equipment and redesigned lighting in the Sanctuary are only part of the ongoing renovations. Dr. Adams’ vision of community outreach led to the establishment of The AGAPE (LOVE) HOUSE for charitable and community ministries. Formerly housed in properties purchased across the freeway on James Couzens, The AGAPE HOUSE, now temporarily located in the Church, continues to offer needed social services that include the Daily Senior Citizens’ Program, Hunger Task Force, Bookstore, Taping Ministry, Scholarship and College Preparation Programs, Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous. Hartford has purchased commercial real estate along Seven Mile Road, supporting the establishment of fast food restaurants, such as McDonald’s, Long John Silver and Kentucky Fried Chicken and other businesses. A Super Kmart was built on church property and employed hundreds of local residents. Today, on the same church property, Home Depot continues to provide employment and a tax base for the city and state. On other church properties, Hartford has established the Head Start Agency, a Tutorial Program and the Hartford Institute for Biblical Studies. Recently, Hartford, under the leadership of Dr. Adams, purchased 5.5 acres of land located on the former Meyers Road campus of Lewis College of Business. The design and plans are in progress for the utilization of this site for Vision ‘007, Dr. Adams’ and Hartford’s greatly expanded vision for community outreach — an assisted living complex, gymnasiums for seniors and youth, a performing arts auditorium and health facilities and The AGAPE HOUSE programs. In 2007, Dr. Adams was selected as the first professor of the Practice of Ethics and of Ministry at Harvard University. His full teaching schedule at Harvard has not prevented his weekly delivery of soul-saving sermons at Hartford. Assisting him is his son, the Rev. Charles Christian Adams, who was unanimously appointed as Hartford’s first Presiding Pastor, thus continuing the Adams’ pulpit legacy. We celebrate and praise God for the ever expanding ministry of Hartford Memorial Baptist Church. “For Hartford is the Place to Be!” SUNDAY, MARCH 29, 2015 PALM SUNDAY SIXTH SUNDAY IN LENT Dr. Charles G. Adams, Pastor Rev. Charles C. Adams, Presiding Pastor Rev. Kevin N. Taylor, Assistant Pastor Rev. Lurecie M. Stokes, Minister of Pastoral Care Website: hmbcdetroit.org Streaming Live at 11:00 AM Church Building WIFI Access Code: hartford Sunday’s Broadcast will be aired at 7:00 PM on 1340 AM Gospel Radio 18700 James Couzens Highway— Detroit, Michigan 48235 — 313-861-1300/Church —313-861-1285/Office SERVING TODAY LOOKING AHEAD The Scriptures for Easter are: Acts 10:34-43; Psalm 118:1-2, 14-24; 1 Corinthians 15:1-11; John 20:1-18. Why not start with the Gospel lesson that tells the story of the first Easter as remembered and recited in John’s Church? It is found in John 20:1-18. This r eading is a combination of two different traditions. The one is the well-attested tradition that Mary Magdalene visited the grave of Jesus on Easter morning, found it empty and reported the fact to the disciples. The other tradition is of Peter’s visit to the grave. John has included the foot race between Peter and the “other disciple.” The “other disciple” comes to faith in the resurrection through the mere sight of the empty tomb. The tomb is open. Death is no longer a closed account. With God, there are no dead-end streets, conditions or experiences. Everything is open! Every event has spiritual possibilities. All life is sacred. Every day is God’s time, and all things fit into a pattern for our ultimate good. The tomb is also empty. Jesus is not down, dead or defeated. Death has lost its princely prisoner. He has been delivered, so that we may know that, in Christ, we, too, are delivered with him and through him. Hallelujah!! Jesus Christ has been raised from the dead in accordance with the scriptures. God is greater than death. Life is stronger than death, and love reigns supreme over death. The poet says, “Life is ever Lord of death, and love can never lose its own.” The Resurrection of Jesus gives us the blessed possibility of always being positive. We know that we can’t lose. “If we live, we live unto the Lord, and if we die, we die unto the Lord. So whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s!” Jesus has won, and we can’t lose! God is supreme, and we can’t be turned around! Romans 14:8 is an excellent Easter text to interpret what’s going on in John 20:1-18. Now turn to Psalm 118:1-2, 14-24. What a Day! The day of r escue and r edemption is a mighty day, a joyful day, a wonderful day. What a great day! Easter Day! Life Day! New Day! Beginning again Day! Get right Day! For us who saturate ourselves with the claims of this Psalm, everyday is a day of new life, new love, new power, new joy and new discipline. This is the day of God’s power for life. This is the day that death has been claimed, conquered and conditioned. This is the day that Satan’s stronghold has been torn down. This is the day of songs, shouts and a million thanksgivings! This is the day that we have come to a new beginning and not an ending. “When morning gilds the skies, my heart awakening cries, may Jesus Christ be praised.” Now read 1 Corinthians 15:1-11 wher e Paul ar gues that a Chr istian must believe in the power and love of God as strong enough to raise Jesus and us from death to new life. All Christians should be able to say and mean, “I believe in the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come through our Lord, Jesus Christ.” Nothing less than the awesome power of God itself is the main support of Paul’s argument that we must believe that Jesus rose from the dead, so that we ourselves can and must claim victory over death. We must grieve without despair. We must pray without ceasing, and we must die without fear. To deny the resurrection of Jesus is to deny the power of God, both in this particular deed of the past and in the future consummation of God’s plan, promise and provision. Everything is at stake. God is in the process of ransoming not only all of humankind, but all of the whole creation from the powers to which they have been held captive. God is able, and God will do just what God said. Acts 10:34-43 capsules the Message of salvation based upon the r esur r ection of Christ who was cr ucified. Read the Message and rejoice in hope! Love ya, C.G.A.
