Students from page B.f Emmanuel Baptist under Mendez and considers Emmanuel home. As a young minister Tennial's message to the youth was to let them know that there is something inside of them that God put there and in no one else. He wanted to inspire them to realize everyone has a calling and we all need people around us Who will "nurture the fire inside." Being a graduate of Xavier University in Louisiana, he spoke about the advantages of attending a historically black college or university versus a tradi tional university. He closed by telling the * youth not to let their dreams slip away and to not listen to naysayers. "I just wanted to get across the idea that the fire and gift they have is already in them," said Tennial. "All education is doing is refining that and making sure they are pre pared for the journey that's at hand. All the strength they need can be found in God." Mendez said the reason why the church has this service every year is to send the young people back to school with a posi tive mind frame and a feel ing of empowerment. Mendez spoke to the congregation about the importance of the youth and the oppression that all people of color face. He wanted to convey the importance of the right to vote. Emmanuel Baptist will be registering people to vote every Sunday at the church. Squire added, "I want them to trust in God, and 1 know they have a strong foundation coming out of this church. They have been prepared to go out into the world and they just need to stay focused and know their church family loves them."

The all white affair on Friday, Aug. 12, in the banquet room of the Winston-Salem Hotel & Spa was filled with wonderful words and well wishes honoring Johnson. The TVCOD Mass Choir and a liturgical dance by Alyssa Bennett and Jenea Jetter had everyone clapping then hands. Johnson said he was truly honored by the day's events and kept a smile on his face throughout. "The day went tremendously well because of the leadership of Bishop Dr. Debra Moorman Bradshaw," Johnson said. 'Today went beyond my expectations, and the speaker was great." Bishop James Randolfph Woodson II, pastor of St. James Home of Fresh Start in Greensboro, delivered the sermon that brought everyone to their feet. Woodson added, "The Bible says look to the quarry from whence you were dug and the rock from whence you were hewn. Sometimes you have to go back to where you started in order to know where you are going, and that's why I'm here." Bradshaw was the chairman of the Founder's Day committee. She said she was pleased with the fruits of her labor. "I think we had a beautiful time and everyone came out and just had a Holy Ghost good time," said Bradshaw. Rel.
