Bishop James Oglethorpe Patterson Sr. – “Looking Back”

A Black History Month Preacher Feature

Who He Was

Bishop James Oglethorpe Patterson Sr. (1912–1989) was one of the most influential leaders in the Church of God in Christ (COGIC) and a foundational figure in 20th‑century African American holiness preaching. Born in Derma, Mississippi, he grew up rooted in strong spiritual teachings and later received formal training through the Memphis City School system and the Howe School of Religion—now part of LeMoyne‑Owen College.

After acknowledging his call to ministry in the early 1930s, he was ordained an elder in 1935 and went on to pastor multiple congregations across Tennessee and New Jersey. His leadership and success in ministry led to his consecration to the bishopric in 1955 and later to key administrative roles including General Secretary, Board of Directors member, and Executive Board Secretary within COGIC.



Rev. Leo W. Daniels – “What God Can Do With a Little”

A Black History Month Preacher Feature

Who He Was

Known for his thunderous preaching style, vivid storytelling, and unforgettable delivery, Rev. Daniels filled auditoriums across the nation with messages of hope, repentance, and the miraculous power of God. His sermons were broadcast widely, preserved on recordings, and deeply cherished in Black church history — establishing him as a legendary voice in evangelistic preaching.



Bishop S.C. Johnson – “When You Are Without Spirit”

A Black History Month Preacher Feature

Who He Was

Bishop Sherrod C. Johnson (1901–1961) was a pioneering Apostolic leader and founder of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ of the Apostolic Faith. Born in Pine Tree Quarters, North Carolina, he rose from a childhood marked by poverty, farm labor, and hardship to become one of the most powerful and controversial voices in 20th‑century holiness preaching. His early life experiences—including working cotton fields at age nine and moving through various labor-intensive jobs—shaped the resilience, boldness, and conviction that later marked his ministry.

Johnson’s preaching ministry emphasized holiness, strict biblical obedience, and the oneness of God. His teachings drew massive audiences, and his doctrinal positions often challenged mainstream Christian interpretations, earning him both admiration and resistance.


Rev. B.W. Smith – “Watch Them Dogs”

A Black History Month Preacher Feature

Who He Was

Rev. B.W. Smith was a dynamic and widely beloved African American Baptist preacher known for his electrifying delivery, unforgettable storytelling, and ability to take familiar scriptures and bring them to life with humor, conviction, and deep spiritual insight. His sermons became classics across the Black church world, often circulated on cassette tapes and radio programs, cementing him as one of the most memorable voices in 20th‑century Black preaching.




Rev. Timothy Flemming – “The Hard‑Headed Preacher: Jonah”

Mount Zion Youth Ministry Glides Into February With a Night of Roller Skating Fun


On Monday, February 2nd, the Mount Zion Baptist Church Youth Ministry traded pews for wheels as they headed to Cavalier in Stafford, Virginia for an evening of roller skating, laughter, and unforgettable memories. What began as a simple night out quickly became a beautiful reminder of growth, courage, and God’s guiding grace.

For many of our children, this was their very first time on skates. At the start of the night, they clung to the wall, shook with nerves, and searched for anything — or anyone — to hold onto. Their wobbly first steps looked a lot like the early stages of life’s journey: uncertain, unsteady, and full of questions.

But they weren’t alone.

Several of our fathers, seasoned skaters themselves, stepped boldly onto the floor and became living examples of support and leadership. Their presence turned the rink into a place of connection, encouragement, and shared joy. With every lap, they reminded our youth that growth happens when someone believes in you enough to skate beside you.

As the night went on, something beautiful happened. The same children who trembled at the start began to glide with confidence. Their fear gave way to freedom. Their hesitation transformed into expression and movement. They found their rhythm — and in doing so, they found a lesson.

Just like new believers learning to trust Jesus, our youth discovered that faith grows with every step. At first, they wobbled. Then, they leaned on support. And eventually, they moved boldly, carried by grace.

By the end of the evening, the rink was filled with smiling faces, triumphant glides, and the sound of pure joy. It was more than a skating trip — it was a collective venture of fellowship, courage, and spiritual reflection.

Mount Zion celebrates our Youth Ministry, our dedicated fathers, and every child who stepped onto the floor with bravery. The night was truly enjoyed by all in attendance, and it set a beautiful tone for the month ahead.

Honoring Black History Month at Mount Zion Baptist Church

Each February, Mount Zion Baptist Church joins communities across the nation in celebrating Black History Month—a sacred time to honor the faith, resilience, and brilliance of African Americans whose stories continue to shape our world. For our church family, this month is more than a historical observance. It is a spiritual reminder of God’s faithfulness through generations and a call to continue the work of justice, unity, and love.

Black History Month invites us to reflect on the leaders, trailblazers, and everyday heroes who pressed forward with courage—often guided by deep, unwavering faith. From the prophetic voices of the Civil Rights Movement to the quiet strength of families who held communities together, their legacy lives on in the ministries, worship, and service we carry out today.

At Mount Zion, we celebrate this month with gratitude for those who paved the way and with commitment to nurturing the next generation of leaders. We honor the educators, artists, preachers, activists, and innovators whose contributions continue to inspire hope. We also recognize the powerful role the Black Church has played as a place of refuge, empowerment, and spiritual grounding throughout history.

As we move through February, may we take time to learn, reflect, and give thanks. May we celebrate our heritage with joy, remember our ancestors with reverence, and continue to walk boldly in the light of God’s purpose. Black History Month is a reminder that our story is rich, our faith is strong, and our future is filled with promise.

As part of our Black History Month observance, we invite you to experience the powerful legacy of Negro spirituals through this 30-minute video presentation by Ekklesia Meta Church. These sacred songs—born from the suffering, hope, and unwavering faith of enslaved African Americans—continue to echo through generations as testimonies of resilience and divine strength. Each melody carries the soul of a people who found light in darkness and praise in pain. May these spirituals uplift your spirit and deepen your appreciation for the enduring faith woven into our heritage.

New Saturday Morning Bible Study: “Kingdom Stewardship & Tithing”
















Saturdays at 10:00 a.m. | Led by Rev. Dr. Charles W. Wormley, Pastor | For All MZBC Members

Mount Zion Baptist Church is excited to announce a new Saturday Morning Bible Study for all members, beginning at 10:00 a.m. each Saturday. Under the prayerful leadership of Rev. Dr. Charles W. Wormley, Pastor, we will explore the timely and transformational topic: Kingdom Stewardship and Tithing.

This study will deepen our understanding of biblical stewardship—how we honor God with our time, talent, and treasure—and why tithing is both a spiritual discipline and a declaration of trust in God as our source.

Who Should Attend:
 All MZBC members—whether you’re new to the faith, growing in stewardship, or seeking to refresh your understanding—are warmly invited. Bring your Bible, a notebook, and an open heart.

Why This Study Matters

Stewardship is about more than finances; it’s about living our entire lives under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Tithing is not just a transaction; it’s a testimony—an act of worship that says, “God, You come first.” Together, we’ll look at Scripture, ask questions, and learn practical ways to live faithfully and generously in our homes, our church, and our community.

A Short Story to Encourage Your Heart

“The Jar and the First Cup”

Brother James kept a simple ceramic jar on his kitchen counter—his “Blessing Jar.” Every payday, he set aside his tithe first: the first cup from the jar. At times, money felt tight, and the jar looked thin. But each month he honored God first, even when it felt risky.

One Saturday morning, Brother James came to Bible Study discouraged, unsure how he’d make it to month’s end. Sister Ruth overheard and gently advised, “You keep giving the first cup. God has a way of refilling the jar.”

That afternoon, Brother James received an unexpected refund and a call about a better-paying position. He stood in church the next day with tears in his eyes. “The jar wasn’t empty,” he testified. “God was making room for more.”

Moral: When we honor God first, He teaches us that our supply doesn’t come from the jar—it comes from His hand.

Scripture for Reflection

  • Malachi 3:10 (KJV):
     *“Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that the…
