 | home of Richard and Ruth Asberry at 214 North Bonnie Brae Street.Description: Seymour went to the home of Richard and Ruth Asberry at 214 North Bonnie Brae Street. Five weeks later, Lee became the first to speak in tongues. Seymour then shared LeeÂ’s testimony at a gathering on North Bonnie Brae and soon many began to speak in tongues. Word of these events traveled quickly in both the African-American and white communities. For several nights, speakers preached on the porch to the crowds on the street below. Finally, after the front porch collapsed, the group rented the former Stevens African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church at 312 Azusa Street in early April.
