Thanks to my dear friend, Jackie, I had the pleasure of attending “Our God is Marching on!: A Gospel Festival of Hope Celebrating Martin Luther King Jr.” last Sunday at the Marble Collegiate Church. The service was a moving, musical tribute to MLK Junior’s lasting impact on the world, peppered with his words & those of fellow activists. As many mentioned in the service, his message is as relevant today as ever & it is our responsibility, both as individuals & a collective, to keep his dream alive:
As you enjoy (I hope!) the holiday today, please remember, in the words of the man himself, “Life’s most urgent question is, what are you doing for others?”
“Everybody can be great… because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.” MLK Jr.
