Date, Time, Location:

Tuesday, July 7th | Time to be determined.
Calvin B. Taylor House Museum | 208 N Main St, Berlin, MD 21811

Event Details:

The Town of Berlin proclaimed that July 7th will be Tindley Day in Berlin! This day, which is also his birthday, will serve as a reminder of the accomplishments of this Berlin native and the impact he had inside and outside of his community.

 

Although born free, Tindley faced many challenges. His father had been enslaved and his mother, according to sources, died while Tindley was young. He also received no formal education, but that did not deter Tindley from teaching himself how to read “from bits of newspapers and without any teacher until I could read the Bible almost without stopping to spell the words.” Through his own perseverance, Reverend Dr. Charles Albert Tindley became one of the most influential ministers and gospel composers in American history.

 

The Calvin B. Taylor House Museum is planning a celebration of Dr. Reverend Charles Albert Tindley’s legacy so save the date for this joyous date and plan to join the commemoration of the first Annual Tindley Day!
