Note
In this oral history interview, Pastor Angeloyd Fenrick, a long time D.C. resident, discusses her life and experiences moving from Mobile County, Alabama, to Washington, D.C. Pastor Fenrick begins the interview with a discussion of her upbringing and family life in Prichard, Alabama, before going on to talk about participating in the Montgomery Bus Boycott as a thirteen-year-old. She then discusses the founding of Columbia Learning International Ministries and her work providing affordable housing for unhoused people in Washington, D.C. Pastor Fenrick also recalls her experience of coming to D.C. to study at Howard University and talks about her participation in civil rights activism on and off campus. To conclude the interview, she recounts how she was able to fulfill her dream of building her mother a new house.
Pastor Angeloyd Fenrick (b. 01/22/1943) was born and raised in Prichard, Alabama, near the city of Mobile. She is the oldest of 12 siblings (5 sisters and 6 brothers). Pastor Angeloyd graduated high school in 1960 and moved to Washington, D.C., at age 17, to attend Howard University. After receiving her train fare from an aunt in Chicago, she took a train to D.C. with only 33 dollars in her pocket. Pastor Angeloyd studied psychology at Howard and went on to have a career as a school psychologist in D.C. Public Schools. Pastor Fenrick has been a lifelong social justice activist and was involved in the Civil Rights Movement at an early age. She believed that the Civil Rights Era was an assignment from God. At 13, she participated in the Montgomery Bus Boycott as a delegate for the Alabama State Sunlight Sunday School Convention. While studying at Howard, she joined the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and participated in student activism. She also participated in the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in 1963. Later in life, Pastor Angeloyd felt called to help the homeless. Going into work, she would see men gathering near a shelter which opened at 6:00 PM. In 1990, she began preaching to the men about finding employment. But after seeing men secure jobs only to remain unable to afford housing, she felt called by God to work to provide housing to the working homeless. Columbia Learning International Ministry was founded out of this. After soliciting donations and cashing in her retirement, Pastor Angeloyd was able to purchase an apartment building to provide housing. During this time, she eventually went back to college and got a master’s in divinity from Howard University. After twenty-one years, Pastor Angeloyd retired from Columbia Learning International Ministry, and the organization recently sold their building to another non-profit.
