Henry Edward Hall has been selected to fulfill the post of Breitmayer Memorial minister at Grace United Methodist Church. The post was created nearly a year ago to meet the need for a “minister to the neighborhood and was named in memory of Douglas R. Breitmayer, former Minister of Music at Grace. Mr. Hall’s responsibilities will involve him in the activities of neighborhood groups, such as the Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council in addition to church functions.

Mr. Hall, 23, has worked with the Regional Forum of the East-West Gateway Coordinating Council. He expects to receive his B.A. in Urban Affairs from St. Louis University by the end of this year.

His experience includes work in programs for children and youth in disadvantaged situations both in Kinloch and in Webster Groves through the YWCA and YMCA organizations. He also co-directed the Alternative Learning Festival (a national conference highlighting new educational issues, material, models, etc.)

At present he is a Program Developer for KETC-TV, developing a series on Black Religion entitled Black Religion Is Living It.
