A spiritual cornerstone: For nearly two centuries, the Israel AME Church has been ministering to Capital Region parishioners
2007
Overview
\"I think there has been a concerted effort to keep the church how it is,\" said the Rev. Edward B. Smart, who became the church's 68th pastor in 2004. \"It isn't that we don't need the space, but the fact is that keeping it like this serves as a remembrance of the legacy that we have. Everything that you touch and walk on in this church is living history.\" The plain wood pews, with crosses carved into each end, run up close to the altar, which is bookended by an organ and a piano. There is a mural painted above the altar that depicts the past, present and future of the church, the words \"Walking With God Through Many Generations\" written above it. \"They would have counseled their congregations to continue to support King's outlook and philosophy and trust God,\" Lawrence said. \"On the flip side of that there was understandable anger associated with the messenger being killed, so it was the role of the pastor to be realistic about what people were feeling, but to maintain King's philosophy to love your enemy.
