Patricia "Pat" Jackson - On Neville's Chapel Church (clip)
Interviewed by Kathryn Wall on November 3, 2021
Kathryn Wall (KW): When you were going to First Baptist was your family going there as well or coming to St. Joseph’s?
Pat Jackson (PJ): No, my family didn't come to St. Joseph, my family, my mother, our home church is Neville's Chapel and it’s out on 15-501 headed towards Greensboro, that's where my family church was. But again, that was the country at that time and after we moved from the country, from our home place, we moved to Nunn Street so this was uptown. So my friends now are uptown, so I’m not going to the country but I’ve got to go to church. So my friends are going to church here and here, so you know, you went to church.
KW: And your parents were fine as long as you were in church?
PJ: Oh yeah, my mother was fine just, “you’re going to church, and if you don't go to church with me, but you’re going to church.”
KW: Is there a big denominational difference or a big teachings difference between the Baptist Church and the CME Church?
PJ: Not really, just procedural differences, but I would say no, not a big difference in teaching the word of God.
KW: In terms of beliefs [they] were very similar.
PJ: Very similar, yeah.
