This week at
Thirsty Thursdays - Young Adult Bible Study
"From Enron where thousands of people's life earnings [were] gone, to now in the midst of record unemployment, the vulgarity of what happened here on Wall Street with $130 million salaries . . . the American people need to understand [that it] came from deregulation. It came from a social policy set in Washington." (Rev. Al Sharpton, 2003)
This Thursday, Young Adult Bible Study will take a "field trip" to Ebenezer's Main Sanctuary where we all (brothers and sisters) will celebrate the 2008 Men's Season Kick-Off Service with guest preacher Reverend Al Sharpton, a Civil Rights icon who is known for speaking truth to power! Invite your family and friends, although it is Men's Season this special service is open to the entire church family.
