Result
On MLK Day we stood together in unity to recognize Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and form a multi-ethnic prayer gathering to honor King’s vision for the Beloved Community. During this time we petitioned God for healing across racial divides and injustices.
“But the end is reconciliation; the end is redemption; the end is the creation of the beloved community. It is this type of spirit and this type of love that can transform opposers into friends. It is this type of understanding goodwill that will transform the deep gloom of the old age into the exuberant gladness of the new age. It is this love which will bring about miracles in the hearts of men.”
– Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. –
