"Gay, Sanctified and Guilt Free: The Faith Temple Story" (Part 1)

On Saturday, September 15, 2012, Faith Temple celebrated its thirtieth anniversary by donating its church papers to the Martin Luther King Jr. Public Library.  Since the donation was the personal property of charter member, R. Michael Vanzant, the collection is identified as the "R. Michael Vanzant/Faith Temple Collection."

"Gay, Sanctified and Guilt Free: The Faith Temple Story" (Part 2)

During the donation ceremony at the MLK library (September 15, 2012), charter members R. Michael Vanzant and Isaiah J. Poole participated in a panel discussion about the church's early history. That discussion was entitled "Gay, Sanctified and Guilt Free: The Faith Temple Story" (part 1).

Part two of "The Faith Temple Story" will be held at the MLK library in the Spring of 2013.  No date has been set for part 2 of the panel discussion.
