It is ironic because two white children were in an all black church where in that time whites and blacks were separated by racism.
Scout wanted to go with Calpurnia to her church, First Purchase African M.E. Church, to experience a different perspective on life and gain a better understanding of the African American community in Maycomb.
Calpurnia's church was called First Purchase because it was the first property purchased by the black congregation in Maycomb. The church was established by the African American community who pooled their resources to buy the land for the church building.
In 'To Kill A Mockingbird,' Calpurnia takes Jem and Scout to services at the First Purchase Baptist Church. At this time, black and white churches were just as segregated as other parts of society. All the members are not happy to see the white children at their church, but Calpurnia continues to make them feel that they belong anywhere she is.
Calpurnia takes them to her church, First Purchase, where Scout and Jem become a "bridge" between the white and black communities.
Cal takes Jem and Scout to First Purchase African M.E. Church, where their father, Atticus, is defending Tom Robinson.
Reverend Sykes takes Jem, Scout, and Dill to the black church, First Purchase African M.E. Church, in "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee.
Calpurnia takes Jem and Scout to her church, First Purchase. The Reverend Sykes and many members are accepting of Jem and Scout. Some people in the church realize the price Atticus is paying to defend Tom Robinson. They are very appreciative of his sacrifice. They greatly appreciate what Atticus Finch is doing for Tom Robinson, thus they are gracious in receiving Jem and Scout in their church. While most of the members are hospitable toward Jem and Scout, one lady named Lulu is not accepting. She rudely criticizes Calpurnia for bringing the "white" children to church.
read theee book , but if nottt heres a short thing i wrote for school Last week a white visters appeared at an African American church called "First Purchase Church". These visters were two children, Jeremy Atticus Finch and his little sister Jean Louis Finch. They were accompined by their nanny Capurnia. Despite Lula, everyone at the church were extremely welcoming and kind to the children. In the church everyone is forced to 'donate' money or they wouldn't be able to go home. First Purchase Church is very different from the White Folks church. They cant afford many Hymm books and their is only to people who know how to read. Calpurnia's son recites the hymms while everyone else repeates him. <----- that's ittt(; -hiraFRED
