- Henry_H._Proctor abstract "Henry Hugh Proctor (b. December 8, 1868 near Fayetteville, Tenn., d. 1933) was a minister of the First Congregational Church in Atlanta, the second oldest black Congregational church in the United States. He was also a noted author and lecturer.Proctor was born to parents who were former slaves, and dug ditches and preached sermons to pay for his degree from Fisk University, graduating in 1891. In 1894, he received a Bachelor of Divinity degree from Yale University and was ordained into the Congregational ministry. Proctor became pastor of the First Congregational Church in Atlanta.In 1903, Proctor joined George Washington Henderson, president of Straight University, a black college in New Orleans, to found the National Convention of Congregational Workers Among Colored People, and Proctor became its first president. In 1904, Clark University awarded Proctor a Doctor of Divinity degree. After the Atlanta Race Riot in 1906, Proctor and a white attorney worked together to quell remaining tensions and formed the Interracial Committee of Atlanta.In the church, Proctor provided amenities lacking to blacks such as a library, a kindergarten, an employment bureau, a gymnasium, a ladies’ reading parlor, a music room, counseling services and a model kitchen and sewing room for girls. He also helped open the first housing facility for young employed black women. Proctor was a strong believer in self-improvement. Proctor also founded the Atlanta Colored Music Festival Association, with concerts attended by both races, segregated but under one roof, believing that music could quell racial animosity. This festival continues to the present day as the Atlanta Music Festival.In 1919, Proctor ministered to the black American troops in Europe. Afterwards he led the Nazarene Congregational Church in Brooklyn, the place where Proctor lived the rest of his life. He died in 1933 of blood poisoning.".
