The History of Zion Baptist Church

Did You Know?

Did you know ship owners had insurance on the slaves?

Faced with a large number of deaths due to overcrowding, sick Africans were thrown overboard. If sick slaves died a natural death, the owners were not compensated. However, the insurers paid out if they were still alive when thrown overboard.

40 Acres and a Mule

40 acres and a mule, the 1st attempt at reparations for newly freed slaves, was even more radical than idea of ending slavery.

Imagine how better off African-Americans, the nation and the world would be had former slaves been given the opportunity to own land, be self-sufficient, and to have, build and pass on intergenerational wealth. 

Prayer

Lord, thank You for the lives, lessons and legacy of our ancestors. Help us to prepare our next generation by building on their faith, strength and trust in You. In Jesus Name, amen.
