Pastor Curry was the reason I chose to join Neelys Grove AME back in the days. I was baptist born and raised, but my husband at the time was an AME .Pastor Curry was human like all Pastors, I will forever appreciate him for being a teacher of the gospel and human. Not everyone who teaches the gospel is called, NOT everyone is chosen. He was real. He knew where he came from and always spoke of it through hurt or ministry. Rest in Glory Pastor Curry.
