Your Town * Your State * Your Furture West Virginia Episcopalians have reached a compromise concerning financial support for the national church following the controversy surrounding last year's consecration of openly gay Bishop V. Gene Robinson in New Hampshire. The resolution came yesterday during the diocese's 127th annual convention at Marshall University. It allows churches to redirect a portion of their giving from the budget of the national church to a ministry of the national church. The Reverend Donald Vinson is rector at St. John' s Episcopal Church in Huntington. Vinson says the compromise allows some congregations to feel they have an act of protest against the action of the national church. But he says it also caters to those who want the church to stay together, regardless of the issue. The language of the compromise came from Bishop William Klusmeyer, who oversees the Episcopal Diocese of West Virginia.

ACROSS WEST VIRGINIA West Virginia map never to return, and most places are populated by people who seem to have lived there forever. The self-reliant, "Mountaineer" ethos still runs strong, and Montana-style militia types may lurk in the hills and hollows, but the lingering impression West Virginia leaves behind is of taking a step back in time to a world where men work hard in mines and mills, women raise the kids, and everybody goes to church on Sunday. Parkersburg Parkersburg Though the first impression can be fairly bleak, Parkersburg does merit a closer look. The Blennerhasset Museum boats ($7) leave hourly for the island from Point Park, which is two blocks west of the museum, under the railroad bridges and on the far side of the 25-foot concrete flood walls at the confluence of the rivers. There are a couple of coffee shops along 7th Street (US-50), like the Travelers Restaurant and the 24-hour Mountaineer Family Restaurant , near I-77 on the east side of town. Parkersburg also has a good range of motels. For more information, contact the Parkersburg visitors bureau , 350 7th Street (304/428-1130 or 800/752-4982).

What's Happening in Local Churches May 2004 Mullens Child Center o pen again after floods Eleven months after a devastating flood wiped it out, the Child Care Center at Mullens UMC opened its doors recently. “What a glorious day when the children came!” the center’s staff agreed on the first day back open. To make the new opening possible, several other churches sent work teams, delivered gifts for the children, and made donations. “Thanks to all our fellow Christians,” Donna Wikel, lifetime member of the Mullens Church and founder of the Center said. The after school “At-Risk” program provides a safe place for 24 children when no one is home. The infant room is a loving, nurturing haven for infants, ages 3-18 months. The toddler room is full of activity and giggles, along with play and learning. The Center currently serves 58 children in day care and is growing every day. Since opening two years ago, approximately 20,000 meals and snacks have been served. With this growth come needs. The dedicated staff is looking for an outdoor play structure, a used passenger van to take the children on local field trips, four more baby beds and durable infant and toddler toys.

100. African American Communities In West Virginia Gospel music is an important part of church and community, and west virginia is home to several nationally recognized gospel performers and festivals. http://www.wvculture.org/arts/ethnic/african.html

African American Communities in West Virginia (as originally published in 1999) West Virginia is home to nearly 60,000 African Americans. The African American community has a rich and diverse history in West Virginia dating to the early settlement period prior to the Civil War. Some of the older communities include those in the Eastern Panhandle and around Charleston. The majority of African American communities in the state originated during the coal mining boom in the late 1800's and early 1900's. After the Civil War, many blacks left the Southern states for work in the coal mines of West Virginia. This period of relocation gave rise to many of West Virginia's older rural black communities as well as contributing to the growing communities in the larger cities. West Virginia is currently home to a vibrant African American population with strong regional communities and numerous statewide organizations reflecting a network for all aspects of black culture. Individuals and groups are actively involved in the promotion African American heritage through organizations, community events, and festivals throughout the state. In West Virginia there are African American historical societies, heritage museums, and traditional music festivals as well as community action groups, performance ensembles, academic research facilities, and arts organizations. This report provides merely an introduction to a few of the many facets of the diverse African American community in West Virginia.
