Grace and Rafael tell us about their parents’ involvement in the Pentecostal Church: “[My mother and father] were born in Jamaica, [they came to the UK] when they were asking people to help build up after the [Second World] War… So they worked in the community, helping, feeding and you know, helping anyone that was in need, as they were doing in Jamaica and then started up little house groups and like what happens normally with people when they start to grow and expand, they say “OK now we need a building”. So apparently, my dad was the first black guy from the Pentecostal to go out …and sees a shop and thinks “I’m going to turn that to a church”. It was a butcher’s shop, 26 Wells Street, Canton. They worked on it and got it all ready to use for a church. Including the baptism pool, they dug out at the back. They used to sing a lot and live very joyful in life and my father liked playing the tambourine, you know and he used to burst it through and really go wild with it.” Physical description Black and white photograph in two parts mounted on a black board.
