opment Agency.
KINGSPORT - Stonegate
Wal-Mart dqnated $1,800 to
Joshua Generation International Tuesday to kick off the
"Putting Babies First" Campaign 2000.
Stonegate Wal-Mart first
helped JGI in December during
the group's "Diapers for the
Holidays" event.
Store manager Jimmy Clark
said he feels encouraged by the
·campaign.
· "When it was first presented
to me, I was moved, and I
thought it was good for the community," Clark said.
JGI President Ronnie Collins
said the goal of the campaign is
to distribute 10,000 diapers and
15,000 baby wipes free each
month to 250 babies of low-income families living in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest
Virginia. Collins said diapers
and baby wipes will also be distributed to 250 Knox County
families.
"Before the year is out, our
goal is 7,000 underprivileged infants and toddlers getting diapers - a week's supply of diapers, wipes and also milk,"
Collins said.
The campaign goal is to raise
$67,300 and to provide 280,000
diapers and 420,000 baby wipes
by year's end. Collins said this
is the largest outreach for babies in the history of Tennessee
and Virginia.
"We believe we can do it,"
Collins said. "We're asking each
person to give $10, which will
take care of a one-week supply
of diapers, at least 40 diapers.
That's our goal."
·
Last year, Collins said JGI
provided 620 families with diapers and baby wipes, and this
year they want to make an even
bigger- impact.
"We want to do it consistently, on a monthly basis," Collins
said.
JGI has formed alliances and
partnerships with several local
organizations for the distributions of the diapers and wipes
New Covenant Family
Church of Johnson City; the Upper East Tennessee Human Development Agency of Kingsport;
Knoxville's Comrp.unity Development Corp., the Family
Preservation Advisory Council
in Scott County, Va.; AmeriCorpNISTA in Bristol; Appalachian Area Aglow Board of
Grundy, Va.; Bristol, Tenn., YWCA; Erwin Housing Authority;
and the Carver Recreation Center in Johnson City.
Collins said the alliances
and partnerships with JGI have
grown over the years.
"People have started to understand that we're trying to
meet a need, and the only way
we can do this effectively is that
we get it to the right people,"
Collins said.
JGI purchases al~ of the supplies from Wal-Mart. Collins describes Clark as a "blessing."
"This is the largest one-time
gift we have received in the
three years of Joshua Generation's existence," Collins said.
For more information or to
make_a donation_, contact JGI at
P.O. Box 3390, Kingsport, Tenn.

"It's like when you eat and
don't do anything, you blow up
and become fat," said Ronaid
Armstrong, a member of the Full
Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship's evangelistic team, explaining the group's sense of mission.
"With spiritual food, you don't

"Look at you," Armstrong said.

"Ryan, do you know God?"
"I believe in God. I just, I don't

"Did you wake yourself up this

To benefit minorities: Area church, Northeast form alliance. Sullivan County News. October 2. 1997.

To benefit minorities
Area churCh, Northeast form alliance
"In partnership to give young
persons opportunities ... "
That is how Pastor Ronnie
Collins views his church's new
alliance with 'Northeast State
Technical Community College
to provide · scholarships to
deserving minority students in
the Tri-Cities region.
The congregation of Spirit
and Truth Full Gospel Baptist
Church in Kingsport has established a . scholarship fund
through Joshua Gen~ration
Outreach Ministry to suppleNortheast
State's
ment
Minority Grants program that
awards maintenance fees and
textbook stipends ·to qualified
students. The initial Joshua
fund awards, totaling more than
$4,000, were made to nine
Northeast State students for
their 1997 Fall Semester maintenance fees. The fund also
paid th~ textbook stipends for
three additional students. ·
According to Collins, the
scholarship fund is a response
to negative stereotypes that persist in the black communityprejudicial stereotypes generated by both blacks and whitesthat ,.can pusht~a c
young person
away from seeking higher education.
"We· believe ·that providing ·a
child or young person with
w
opportunities - ill help to counteract those bad perceptions,"
said Collins. "Opportunities
begin with education.
This
fund is a wake-up call for the·
community_:_to get black and
white on board- to · come
The church has set a
fundraising goal of $15,000 for
the first year to fund the scholarship program. Collins said
future . scholarships will cover
two semesters and will incluc,le
the textbook stipends.
Spirit and Truth Gospel
Baptist Church, sometimes
referred to as the "smallest big
church in the Tri-Cities" for its
community outreach, numbers
40 members and meets in Room
239 of the Renaissance Center
in Kingsport on Sundays a:t 9
a.m. Collins said the congregation became familiar · with
Northeast State through some
of its members' involvement on
the Northeast State Minority
Advisory C<~mmittee and by
witnessing the college's dedica~
tion to providing opportunities
· to its students.
~'North~ast State's high job
employment rates . among its
graduates and 'the quality of
education is very impressive,"
Collins said. "We believe that
students can receive an excel-.
lent education in a short amount
lof time at Northeast State and
then find good jobs or continue
their education at four-year colleges."
Collins said the church
decided to establish the Joshua
Fund when · the college's
Minority Grants program
exhausted its funds with several
qualified applicants .remaining
·
on the list:
"Northeast State is extremely
. grateful for the contribution· of
p~~tnr rollin~ and the Joshua
Pastor Ronnie Collins (right) EJnd his wife, Gwen, present
Northeast State President Dr. William W Locke with ·the
check for the initial Joshua Generation Outreach Ministry
Scholarship Grants
Ministry," said Dr. William
W. Locke, president of the college. "Their generosity and
cooperative spirit is an example
of the community relationships
that help sustain our tradition of
service to the region."
1997 Joshua Fund Scholars
are Jeremy Fain, Valerie
Smith, and Whitney Ray of
Johnson City and Katheryn
Hall, Gilbert Miller, Calvin
Williams, Anthony Horton,
Ciania Authier, and Michi
Moore of Kingsport. Textbook
stipend recipients are Carla
Releford, Charlsie Gilliam, and

Spirit of Truth Full Gospel Baptist Church Forms Alliance. Staff writer. The Full Gospel Baptist Times. September 1999.
Spirit of Truth Full Gospel
Baptist Church Forms Alliance
S staff Writer
Tennessee Bureau
"In partnership to give young
persons opportunities ... "
That is how District Overseer
Ronnie Collins vies his church's
new alliance with Nmtheast
State Technical Community
College to provide scholarships
to deserving minority students
in the community.
_
The congregation of Spirit and
Truth Full Gospel Baptist
Church in Kingsport has establi shed a scholarship fund through Joshua Generation Outreach
Ministry to supplement Northeast State's Minority Grants
program that awards maintenance fees and textbook stipends
to qualified students. The initial Joshua fund awards, totaling
more than $4?000, were made up to nine Northeast State Stu~~-
.
According to Overseer Collins, the scholarship fund is a
response to negative stereotypes that persist in the black community--prejudicial stereotypes generated by both blacks and
whites--that can push a young person away from seeking
higher education.
"We beiieve that providing a child or young person with
opportunities will help to counteract those bade perceptions,"
said Overseer Collins. "Opportunities begin with education.
This fund is a wake-up call for the community--to get blacks
and whites on board--to come together to do something positive."
The church has set a fundraising goal of $15,000 for the first
year to fund the scholarship program: Future scholarships
will cover two semesters and will include the textbook
stipends.
Spirit and Truth Full Gospel Baptist Church, sometimes
referred to as the "smallest big church in the Tri-Cities" for its
community outreach. The congregation became familiar with
Northeast State through some of its members' involvement on
the Northeast State Advisory Committee and by witnessing
the college's dedication to providing opportunities to its students.
The church decided to establish the Joshua Fund when the
college's Minority Grants program exhausted its funds with
several qualified applicants remaining on the list.
Officials of Northeast State expressed their sincere appreciation for the contribution of Overseer Collins and the Joshua
Generation Outreach Ministry.

TENNESSEE FULL GOSPEL BAPTIST CHURCH
FELLOWSHIP STATE CONFERENCE '99
Staff Writer
Tennessee Bureau
The Tennessee Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship
hosted their Annwii State Conference the week of
March 29 through April 2, 1999 in Nashville, Tennessee at the Opryland Hotel. This will be the first
time the conference has been held in the state capital ·
(Nashville).
Tennessee Full Gospel Baptist Church fellowship will
kicked off it's State Conference on March 29th by distributing enough food to feed a family for a week (for
over 5,000 low-income persons) in one day through
District Overseer ·
the "MY Brother's Keeper Program"! The groceries
Ronnie Collins
will consist of corn, green beans, cookies, macaroni and
cheese, juice ... The "My Brother's Keeper Program" was founded by District Overseer Ronnie Collins of Spirit and Truth Full Gospel Baptist Church located in
Kingsport, Tennessee. The "My Brother's Keeper Program" provided food to over
7,000 low-income persons in the eight county region of East Tennessee and Southwest
Virginia in 1998 and has already provided food to over 1,500 low-income persons in
1999.
District Overseer Collins has challenged not only his church body and community but
now the state of Tennessee to become a "My Brother's Keeper Program Partner" based
on Matthew 25:42-46. It is his hope that other Full Gospel Baptist Churches and Organizations will adopt the "My Brother's Keeper Program" and spread it across the county, and eventually the world.
The Tennessee Fu11 Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship is kicked off it's State Conference based upon the belief that it should not just patronize the hotels, restaurants, and
malls but are called to be a blessing the people of Nashville. Those assisting in the
food distribution are Tennessee Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship membership,
the metropolitan Development and Housing Agency, and community volunteers.
Those interested in becoming a "MY Brother's Keeper Program partner" can send a
donation of $4 each month or a yearly donation of $48 which will provide enough food
for a family to survi~e the last week of each month. Surveys show that most families
who receive government assistance run out of food stamps or money by the third week,
leaving the family to go without until a new disbursement of funds or stamps is
received at the beginning of the next month. Please sendyour tax deductible donation
to: Spirit and Truth Full Gospel Baptist Church, P.O. Box 3390, Kingsport, Tennessee

Pastor offers youth :
ministry program
as jail alternative By CHRISTOPHER SCHNAARS
Times-News Staff Writer
Tylee Henry was in trouble.
Only nine days after legally becoming an adult, Henry
was arrested last month and
charged with inciting a riot,
criminal impersonation and
disorderly conduct. He was
convicted about two weeks
later.
Officers
said
Henry
shouted obscenities at police,
suggested they wear vests,
made lewd comments about
their wives, and encouraged a
group of black teen-agers to
fight police because the officers were outnumbered. The
police had arrived to stop a·
fight between al:>out 30 black
and white teens that was
about to get under way.
Henry, a promising athlete
at Volunteer High School, was
a likely candidate Jor an athletic scholarship, an opportunity that would have been lost
had he been sentenced to jail.
But instead of giving him
jail time, General Sessions
Judge Duane Snodgrass gave
·Henry a curfew, ordered him
to stay in school, and allowed
him to stay out of jail by participating
in . Joshua
Generation, a local youth ministry program.

Now Henry is attending

"We're trying to get people · ·
before they get into trouble,
and if they already are, we'll
say, 'We're here to help
you,' " Collins said.
Snodgrass said Central Appalachian Probation Services
is reviewing the program for
possible future referrals, and
he said he allowed Henry to
participate in the program to
give the young man another
chance.
"It's just a hope that something good could happen,''
Snodgrass said.
Collins said the program
focuses on young AfricanAmerican males because they
make up a large segment of
the prison population and because young black men many
from
single-parent
homes and without positive
role models - often lack selfesteem and the beli~f they
·
can succeed.
"We went to bat for Tylee.
... But any family that has a
son or daughter that is on the
verge of getting in trouble.
with the law or has done
something ... we want them to
contact our ministry program,'' Collins said. "We're
not just making this for
blacks."

From staff reports
KINGSPORT-Joshua Gen.:
eration International ·is "taking our education initiative to
the next' level" with its
·Tools-For-School 2000 program.
The second phase of the
program, the 2000 Winter Project, began Thursday morning
at Ra~ge Elementary School
in Watauga, where JGI delivered school supplies to 144
students.
"(It was) the largest distribution to any .school in !WOO,"
said JGI President Ronnie

Tools-For-School 2000 is the
latest version of JGI's annual
drive for school supplies for
East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia students from
low-income families . Collins
said this year's effort is better
aimed at children who need
help.
The goal of phase two is to
raise $17,500 to provide school

For each $7 donation to JGI,
one child will receive school

Collins is asking churches,
businesses and industries,
civic groups, and individuals
in the community to support

Oct. 20 through Jan. :n.
So far this year, Collins said
700 students from 21 local
schools have benefited from
the Tools-For-School 2000
campaign.
In previous years, JGI distributed the school supplies to
the public. This year, JGI
worked with Office Depot and
will be delivering the school
supplies directly to area
schools.
"Teachers know the students and know their needs,"
Collins said. "We've teamed
· with Office Depot, and they're
going to deliver until the money runs out, to every school."
