{"value"=>"<p>Contains Smith's correspondence and printed matter relating to the church and Smith's activities. There is correspondence between Smith and the ATBC staff, PNBC officials, and others regarding church events, invitations, and business matters. Printed matter is arranged by type and consists of brochures, church bulletins, directories and handbooks, flyers, newsletters, programs, souvenir journals, clippings, and a workbook. The Church Services - Other folder contains programs for services honoring Smith's installation (1971), Bishop Desmond Tutu (1985), and both the dedication of the New Sanctuary and the 62nd anniversary at ATBC (1981). The Church Bulletins - Working Drafts files contain clippings, correspondence, lists, and writings by Smith and the assistant pastor which were under consideration for inclusion in the weekly church bulletin. These folders are arranged chronologically and span the year 1988 only. Although the church had a close relationship with the Black Panther Party, nothing in the papers reflects this relationship. There is, however, a file on Huey P. Newton, the slain Black Panther Party leader who was a member of ATBC. The folder contains a memorial service program, printed matter, and a computer print-out of press articles about Newton. The folders, Flyers and ATBC Events and Forums, shed light on the extent of the church's outreach to the surrounding community through the sponsorship of conferences, retreats, breakfasts, seminars, and other one-day events. Services and Ministries contains material on the Adopting - a - Member and One Church/One Child programs, ATBC's counseling services, the Community Outreach Center and other bodies of the ATBC which offer public services.</p>"}
