Scripture of the Week:
Matt. 20:28
"Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many." 
The Historic March for Respect was a success!
It was time to stop talking & start walking! Over 500 concerned citizens gathered at the City Market and then peacefully circled the City-County Building calling for justice in our Police Department and for Brandon Johnson. They marched 7 times around City Hall believing the walls of injustice, disrespect, and police brutality must fall. The march was led by our Bishop Benjamin and members of the Light!
