Spottswood Rice From Slave to Minister

By Jeff Nebeker-Johnson

A man once lost to history, Reverend Spottswood Rice is an inspiration to Christians. From his humble beginnings as a Missouri slave and Union soldier, Spottswood educated himself and showed that man can become his very best in this life. Based on the true story of a slave turned minister, Spottswood demonstrates a life of charity and true selflessness, eventually becoming an Elder in the African Methodist Episcopal Church. Spottswood Rice's desire to help his fellow man led him to build churches in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Colorado Springs and Manitou Springs, Colorado; many of which are still in use today.
