Church makes a controversial change, replaces Robert E. Lee with Bishop Leontine Kelly
The First United Methodist Church in Boise, Idaho replaced its stained glass window of Confederate General Robert E. Lee with the likeness of Bishop Leontine Kelly, the first Black female bishop in the United States. The church spent over $25,000 to commission the new stained glass window as a way of distancing itself from its past association with the Confederacy. The decision was made after a year and a half of consideration and contemplation by the church's congregation, and the window now serves as a reminder of the powerful impact of one person.
Bishop Kelly's children expressed their joy over the tribute to their mother and her unique legacy, which included being the daughter, sister, wife, and mother of Methodist pastors. Her son, John Current, who was a senior pastor at the Hope United Methodist Church in San Francisco, spoke of her determination to rise within a male-dominated sphere, drawing strength and guidance from her faith in God. The new stained glass window serves as a symbol of a new beginning for the church, celebrating the life and achievements of a remarkable woman who left an indelible mark on the Christian church.
