Black History Moment:
Rev. Robbin W. Skyles III
This is Rev. Robbin W. Skyles III, who founded St. James Lutheran Church, the first African-American Lutheran Congregation in the State of Illinois.
He was 29yrs old when he founded St. James, and can you guess where... I serve as pastor at the age of 29.
ST JAMES LUTHERAN!
Happy to be apart of Black History.
