A Beacon of inspiration: Weekend symposium to explore legacy of Cherry Street AME, Dothan’s oldest church
DOTHAN, Alabama -- Historians, longtime church members, and a Pulitzer Prize winning author will gather at Dothan’s oldest church this Saturday, May 6, to examine its place as a center of religious, cultural, and civic expression.
Sessions will address the relevance of churches as places of community and foundations for social change. Panelists include: • Lifelong and senior church members, who will share their memories of the church’s role throughout the generations. “This symposium is ideal for people who are curious about our church,” said the Rev. Dr. Lynntesha Roberts Henley. “For years, many have driven past our church and wondered about its history and what was inside. Our doors are open, and we are happy to extend an invitation to showcase Cherry Street and our history and legacy to Dothan and the entire Wiregrass.”
