Title: Languaging in Hampton Roads Episode 8 : Road Trip in Hampton Roads: Uncovering the Origins of Geographical Names Hosts: Jill Winkowski and Prue Salasky Date: Sept. 5, 2024 Length: 31:45 min Publication Frequency: Fourth Friday (approx)  of each month Co-hosts Jill Winkowski and Prue Salasky take a road trip to the far corners of Hampton Roads in S.E. Va. They're in search of the provenance of the names, Elephant's Fork in Suffolk, Cuffeytown in Chesapeake, and Chic's Beach in Virginia Beach, and what those names tell us about the history and culture of the region.  The duo talk about toponymy, or the study of place names, and semiotics, the study of signs, and how those disciplines apply to their discoveries.  They share the rules and regulations involved in the official naming process. At the state level there's the Virginia Board on Geographic Names: Senior Map Archivist, Library of Virginia, 800 East Broad St. Richmond, Va. 23219; 804-692-3617; vabgn@lva.virginia.gov. Nationally, the U.S. Board on Geographic Names, BGN, was fully established in 1947; its naming conventions include allowing only 5 places nationwide to have names that include an apostrophe (Martha's Vineyard is one of them). The BGN works closely with state, tribal and local governments, as well as the general public. At Elephant's Fork the duo uncover a community recognition of the name but no understanding of how it came to be; subsequent research, including the use of the free digitized archive of Virginia newspapers, virginiachronicle.com, unearthed its origin in a giant tin elephant used to advertise the emporium of one H.J. Bowen in 1903.  Stories attached to the name included that of Mary Chapman, as recorded in Tidewater Voices,  https://digitalcommons.odu.edu/tidewatervoices, an ongoing digital archive project of Old Dominion University in Norfolk; and that of Angelo Scott, a current Suffolk resident, who recounted his perceived experience of abrupt integration as a 2nd-grader in 1971. At Cuffeytown, a historic community in Chesapeake founded by free blacks in the 1700 they recount their difficulties in finding the historic Cuffeytown cemetery, the final resting place for the Cuffeytown 13. These were Civil War veterans who fought for the Union. Crops at peak growth prevented their access. They did visit the AME Zion Church, founded in 1866, and learned there the identities of the 13 veterans, almost half of them Cuffeys. (See the below list)  5th USCT  Pvt. Walter Smith, Co. I 10th USCT Sgt. William Coffey, Co. G Pvt. Bluet Cuffey, Co. H Corp. Emerson Cuffey, Co. G Pvt. Lemuel Cuffey, Co. F Sgt. Wilson Cuffey, Co. H Sgt. William Cuffey, Co. F Corp. William Sevils, Co. H Pvtd. Cornelius Smith, Co. F Pvt. James W. Smith, Co. F Pvt. Samuel Smith, Co. H Pvt. John Whitehurst, Co. H 36th USCT Sgt. Thomas Van, Co. C From there the intrepid pair took the back roads to Chic's Beach in Virginia Beach, whose recorded history dates back to Native Americans and then the earliest European settlers, but whose current nickname harks back to the mid-20th century. The bayfront neighborhood, officially called Chesapeake Beach, saw a flurry of real estate dealings in the early part of the 20th century and was built out by the 1960s. Local lore attributes the nickname that stuck, Chic's Beach, to one Luther ‘Chic' Ledington who operated a hot dog stand in a beachfront building until 1967.  There's so much to learn from the names we see around us daily!

This is part 7 of 8 in our Church Offices series! We are talking about the office of the elder and what it means to be an elder. We learn many Churches define elder and pastor the same, some Churches ordain elders while others do not, some believe elder is its own position, and others believe these are simply men and women we respect in the Word. How we define this office and understand how others define elders could bring huge implications for Church unity. Is a Church board the same as a plurality of elders? Can elders fill in for the pastor? Should we use this term at all? .

The Rev. Mary Council-Austin, of the Wisconsin area of the United Methodist Church, is a second-generation clergywoman. Her mother turned 90 and has been an ordained minister for more than 60 years. The Rev. Council-Austin recounts the journey of women in ministry – and the triumphs and challenges over the years – while offering encouragement that God stands ready to bless us. (VOICED BY PROFESSIONAL TALENT) FULL TRANSCRIPT 00:02     When women come together, there's nothing we cannot do. Welcome to the WellSprings Journal podcast, where you will hear from women who have been called by God into lives that speak grace and compassion. They share pain and anger, and life's joys and laughter. Inspiration to call forth your creative spirit await. Listen now. 00:34     Still claiming our identity in Christ by the Reverend Mary Council-Austin, Wisconsin Area of the United Methodist Church. 00:43     In the Old Testament, the phrase tent of meeting principally referred to a place where God would meet with his people, Israel. It was also used as another name for the Tabernacle in Exodus. As Moses went into the tent of meeting, the pillar of cloud would come down and stay at the entrance while the Lord spoke with Moses. 01:01     Growing up, my nine siblings and I were very familiar with the phrase tent of meeting. We learned about it in Sunday school, youth gatherings, and worship services. We also learned of it in a special room at home my father called our tent of meeting. This weekly tradition was passed on by my grandparents. It was an intentional gathering place in our home. In our tent of meeting, our family prayed, read Scripture, and worked on educational goals and life lessons of service to God. My father would admonish us by saying, "Galvanize your best hopes and dreams, and hold on no matter what you face." 01:36     Growing up, we faced some pretty extreme prejudice and harsh realities of life in our segregated community. I was raised in the AME Zion Church, and followed both parents into ordained ministry. As a child, pictures of African Methodists like Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, and Richard Allen adorned our walls. There were also pictures of John Wesley, his mother Susanna, and Francis Asbury. 02:02     In the fall of 2017, we celebrated my mother's 90th birthday, marking Reverend Martha's journey of more than 60 years in ordained ministry. The beginning of her ministry was not easy. As a young girl attending church meetings, I witnessed the rejection of my mother's ministry and heard her call belittled. Her testimony was referred to as a vapor that would soon dissipate, but God had a plan for her life and ministry. 02:29     Our family moved three times before Dad and Mom built what is our Council family homestead in eastern North Carolina. In earlier years, we sharecropped and Dad worked at the mill. This provided us housing and some limited income. The women of the community canned and preserved food which was shared across families in the neighborhood. We dreamed under canopies of quilt creations and wore crocheted table coverings and modeled doilies on our heads. We were told that our hopes and dreams and prayers would guide us from Earth to Glory. 03:02     The first six children picked cotton and harvested other crops alongside our parents and other families. The remaining four grew up in integrated schools, able to experience a range of new opportunities. Among my siblings are a stay-at-home mom, an airport staffer, a social worker, an educator, a health care worker, military veterans, and ordained ministers. 03:25     I began my ordained ministry in the United Methodist Church in 1978 as a pastor in Wisconsin. My parents and I were still Methodists together in a larger mission around the world. 03:36     The journey of women in ministry across the church and in society for the most part has been a road with celebrated achievements. The dreams and intentional laboring of our grandmothers, mothers, and sisters who carried the torch through the early work of missionary societies, powerful networks, and organizational structures provided more than stepping stones to help women attain full participation in life of the church and society. 04:03     On March 23, 1869, eight women gathered in a prayer meeting at Tremont Methodist Episcopal Church in Boston, Massachusetts, and organized the Women's Foreign Missionary Society, which would become United Methodist Women. Those women raised money to send a doctor, Clara Swain, and a teacher, Isabella Thoburn, to India as missionaries to serve the women of that nation. 04:27     The Methodist Church granted full clergy rights to women in 1956. Maud Keister Jensen was the first to receive such rights. We praise God that the 1968 merger of the Methodist Episcopal and the Evangelical United Brethren Churches, forming the United Methodist Church, affirmed full clergy rights for women. We praise God for clergy sisters who have become outstanding leaders across the church as bishops, district superintendents, agency leaders and staff, and pastors of local congregations and ministries. 05:02     A retired United Methodist colleague reminded me of a day on the journey when we were dreaming of the time when the church would begin to embrace outstanding clergywomen as Episcopal leaders for our church. The late Bishop Leontyne Kelly was standing on a table with a bullhorn directing traffic as excited clergywomen arrived for the bus ride to our meeting site at the Glorietta Baptist Conference Center in Glorietta, New Mexico. On the bus ride, one of our great clergywomen, who was also a distinguished teacher from one of our seminaries, walked the aisle of our bus as we traveled, encouraging and reminding us of the work ahead. Out of the prayer services and working groups in every geographic area of the church, the election of the sister bishops became a reality, Bishops Matthews, Morrison, Kelly, Brown Christopher, Sherer, Zimmerman Raider, Swenson, Kammerer, and Hassinger, just to name a few. They took their places among global leaders. Many others continued to follow. 06:05     Clergywomen gatherings in the United States and across the globe remind us that we must be ready to stand in the gap of leadership for which the world cries out continually. Faithful service demands constant prayer and vigilance while we build partnerships with other clergy and lay colleagues across the church and community. Clergy sisters have gathered in partnership with colleagues from across the connection in worship, study, and strategy sessions to continue the journey towards full inclusion in the ministries of the church. 06:38     Our gathering places were tents of meeting. Our call was to write the vision plainly so that even the person running could see it. We are working hard to do so. With every chapter, we are called to write the next. 06:52     All across the church, clergywomen are working to help shape a church that will continue to be relevant as we face extremely challenging times across the global community. The work can never just be about clergywomen succeeding. However, it reflects a burning desire to see the church realize the power of God at work through all of us. 07:13     The Babylonians had destroyed Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem. The people felt removed from the sense of God's presence they once knew when the temple stood as a symbol of God's ever present power. Even after they began the process of rebuilding their temple, the work stopped after just a short time because of opposition from the Samaritans. Similarly, there is discouragement across the church today as people seek to experience the power of God in the face of economic distress, anxiety over health care concerns, racial tensions, and terrorist threats at home and abroad. 07:47     Disappointment and fear is the theme of the people in Israel doing the ministry of the Prophet Haggai. Haggai writes to them to challenge them and to encourage them to carry on God's work. In our current troubled world, the feeling is strong that the church has surrounded its leadership to political pundits and self-serving individuals playing in the marketplace of life. The church finds itself facing giants of disbelief, church members and leaders who are out of touch with the historical significance of the roles women have played in moving the church and the society forward for good. 08:22     God raised up the prophet Haggai to call the people back to their task of rebuilding the temple. That is a message I think we could all use today. Haggai reminds us that while some of the people and settings may not look the same, God will remain faithful. Clergywomen have known triumphs and we have faced disappointment. We have realized some of our hopes and dreams. Some churches have received women pastors, and the partnership was very positive. For some, both congregation and pastor experienced unexpected disappointments. Other clergywomen, despite hard work and positive impact in their ministry settings, face the continuing resistance towards women as pastors in local churches. 09:06     Are you discouraged at times? Are you disappointed in your work for the Lord? We may all feel this from time to time. Some of our best hopes and dreams for a ministry may not be realized in every setting. One friend called it facing the impassible mountain. Looking back at the rivers we have crossed and mountains we have climbed, occasional disappointment will not derail us or cause us to lose faith. My mom continues to remind me that this work is God's work. We are invited to share the load. God stands just as ready to bless us today as in years past. God will never leave us nor forsake us. God will meet us in every situation, and will dwell among us and bless us for God's glory. 09:52     Thank you for listening to the WellSprings Journal podcast.

Bishop Frencher shares the SHIPS with the youth of the AME Zion Church

l immediately began to advertise the event, which he billed as a youth "summit meeting," rather than a "rally" or "march," to avoid any controversy surrounding the participation of school-aged marchers. In particular, Bevel recruited popular African American students, such as athletes and prom queens, reasoning that these individuals could most effectively motivate and unify Birmingham's adolescent population around the school boycott so as to make it more effective. Responding to concerns in the days preceding the youth rally that young people would not be enthusiastic or turn out in great numbers, Bevel argued that child marchers could be more effective than adult demonstrators because children would be influenced by peer pressure to join their friends. Bevel also added that the adolescents' lack of financial obligations would make them more eager than adults to serve jail time because they would not be jeopardizing their jobs. Many parents and school administrators disagreed with the school boycott and spoke out against the effort, the ACMHR and SCLC, and King and Shuttlesworth. Such dissension prompted King to doubt his decision to allow Bevel to organize the youth rally. On the morning of May 2, the Central Committee advised King to call off the march. King neither called off the meeting nor appeared at the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church. Around noon that day, Bevel began directing children (who were generally between seven and 18 years of age) with picket signs to leave the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church. Leaving in groups of between 10 and 50, the children headed toward city hall or the downtown shopping district. As they walked, the children peacefully surrendered to the Birmingham police, who were waiting for them to emerge. With a continuous stream of children marching from Sixteenth Baptist Church, AME Zion Church, and the Apostolic Overcoming Holiness Church of God, the city's jail was soon filled to maximum capacity. Throughout the Children's Crusade, the jails would remain full as more than 2,000 protestors would occupy the jails at any one time. Witnessing police restraint, which had been absent in the campaign's earlier phase, King embraced the demonstration. During a mass meeting at Sixth Avenue Baptist Church, he praised the children's bravery and recommitted himself to the Birmingham Campaign and its goals.
