First Baptist Church ofWhite Settlement Turns 150

Come celebrate 150 years with the folks at the First Baptist Church of WhiteSettlement. On Saturday, Feb. 24 we will have a meet and greet with light refresh-ments from 3 to 6 p.m. in the newly refurbished fellowship hall. Come back onSunday, Feb. 25 and worship with friends from then and now starting at 10 a.m.until noon. There will be dinner on the grounds after the service. Please RSVP tothe church office, 817-246 -2171, by Thursday, Feb. 22. First Baptist Church islocated at 7801 White Settlement Road. Six charter members established this congregation in 1868 and named it NewProspect Baptist Church. The founding members - Joseph and Melinda JaneFarmer, James and Sally Young, and Lawrence and E. A. Steel - called the Rev. J.C.Powers as their first pastor. They met in Grant's School, a one-room log cabin thatalso served as a community center. Mr. and Mrs. Joe Dearing gave the church anacre of land and then sold another acre to the church for the purpose of building apermanent house of worship in the White Settlement community in 1905. Threeyears later the name was changed to White Settlement Baptist Church. A lightningstrike in May 1946 caused the church building to burn to the ground. Members metin an adjacent school facility while plans were made for a new building, which wascompleted in 1953. The congregation maintained a fairly small membership until the 1940s and1950s when nearby development of the consolidated aircraft corporation, CarswellAir Force Base, and associated industries brought a surge in the area's population.During this time, White Settlement Baptist Church helped found a number of newcongregations in the county and developed strong programs of education, missionand outreach to the community. Known as the First Baptist Church of White Settlement since 1954, the con-gregation has played a significant role in the religious history of Tarrant Countyand continues to uphold the ideals and traditions of its founders.

They are: (front row, l-r) Amado Sanchez, Christian Giron, Olivia Rosales,Alyssa Bell, Chantel Ordonez, Melissa Torres; (back row) Teacher/Coach RonnieRosales, Teacher/Head Coach Chris Stillwagon and Para-Educator/Coach NikkiValverde.

Joy James Elementary Physical Education teacher Chris Stillwagon has beenpatiently developing and building a legacy at Joy James for 23 years. His legacyencompasses actual legs, as he is the originator of the proud Joy James ElementaryRunning Club. A legacy is defined as something which is a heritage, a gift, a con-sequence, an aftermath, or a result being handed down to successors. I think mosteducators, just like Coach Stillwagon, leave a legacy and give both tangibles andintangibles to their students, which help those students throughout their lives.Coach Stillwagon, though, may just have the market cornered on gifting goodthings to his students. Stillwagon started the Joy James Elementary Running Club 23 years ago, andthis year his runners are still going strong with about 60 students and six coachesparticipating. A consequence or aftermath of Stillwagon's coaching is a long line ofstudents who learned discipline, self-control, patience, a good work ethic, team-work, self-motivation, how to set goals, gained healthy habits, lessened their risksof heart disease, obesity, cancer, depression, became better

Stillwagon opens up membership in the JJERunning Club to second through fifth grade students,and any faculty members who desire to help coach thekids. He has six students who have not missed a yearof participation since joining the runners, and twocoaches who have also done the same since theybegan working with the runners. I asked the kids andthe teachers written about in the above sentence to tellme a bit about the running club, and I hope you willenjoy their responses about belonging to somethingspecial at JJE. Student Olivia Rosales has been part of the JJERunners from first grade through fifth grade, so shehas been running for five years. Olivia's dad is one ofthe coaches, so she was able to begin in first gradeinstead of the normal wait until second grade. Oliviasaid, "The best part of the running club is we get totrain and compete in races. I have learned I can workhard and make anything possible, and I also am a bet-ter student." Her favorite motivational saying fromthe coaches is from her dad, Coach Rosales, when hesays, "This is running club, not walking club!" Amado Sanchez has been part of the JJE Runnersfor four years, and running has taught him to nevergive up. He said, "I like running with my friends, andthe running club has helped me to lose weight overthe years." His favorite saying from CoachStillwagon is a simple but effective, "Keep running!" Melissa Torres has been running for four years,and she chose to be part of the JJE Runners because itsounded like fun club to be part of. She said, "I enjoyrunning because it has made me healthy, made mybody stronger, and it is fun!" Her favorite motivation-al talk from Coach Stillwagon is about having ahealthy body, becoming a better student and havingfun while doing these things. Fifth-grader Chantel Ordonez has been runningfor four years and she joined the club because it wasa fun way to be healthy. She said, "I like running withmy friends and having fun when we go to the races. Ihave to have good grades to stay in the club, so it hasmade me a better student." Her favorite saying fromCoach Stillwagon is, "You have to do your laps or youwill not be ready for the race." Student Alyssa Bell has been running for fouryears and she joined the club because she wanted to

try something new. She said, "I like that we get to goto different races, and running has taught me how tocontrol my asthma." Her favorite saying from CoachStillwagon is straightforward and to the point, and itis "Keep going!" Christian Giron has been a JJE runner for fouryears and he joined the club because he likes to runand he gets to be with friends. He said, " Runningclub helped me make more friends and have fun." Hisfavorite saying from Coach Stillwagon is, "Runfaster, you got this!" Coach Nikki Valverde, who is a para-educator atJoy James, has been with the running club four years.She chose to be part of the club because she felt therunning would get her back to a healthier lifestyle,and she said she feels better than she ever did beforestarting running. Coach Valverde said, " I enjoy get-ting to motivate our little runners, and teach them asrunning has taught me, that you don't have to be thefastest to be a runner. It is part of a healthy life choiceto run whenever I get the chance." Her favorite say-ing from Coach Stillwagon is "This is running club,not walking club!" Coach Ronie Rosales, who is a kindergartenbilingual teacher at JJE has been part of the runningclub for 10 years. He chose to be part of the club tohelp motivate kids to be more athletic and out exercis-ing. Coach Rosales said, "I enjoy taking our kids toraces and seeing them sweep all the awards! I like toremind the kids that no one makes them be here forpractice, but that they choose to be here, which saysso much about their commitment all year long." Hemotivates the kids by telling them "Running is toughand it hurts, but the pain all goes away when you fin-ish and your heart appreciates it!" Coach Chris Stillwagon gives credit for the clubto the principal from 23 years ago who asked CoachStillwagon to try and get a running club started.Coach Stillwagon said, "I enjoy watching the studentsgrow and be successful as they learn hard work paysoff. He said his favorite motivational saying to thekids is "You better stay in front of me!" Coach Stillwagon and the Joy James runners allleave a legacy of using the hard work required tocompete in running as a life lesson for success. See you next week!
