Back when there were slave uprisings in the late 1820s, the decision was made to introduce slaves to Christ en mass. Pastors would hold two serves, the white services were bestowed the virtues of slavery and how slaveowners were giving slaves the opportunity to embrace Christ and eternal salvation. The slaves were told that it is Christianly for them to be "good slaves" and while life is difficult for them now, they will enter the kingdom of heaven in the afterlife.

This was a boon to the pastors, as it meant their congregations would double and they would get to fleece the few assets the slaves have away from them, keeping them poor and dependent on their slavemasters if they were go gain freedom at some point.
