Honoring a life lived in dedication to the principal that all of humanity can be united in peace and service will once again provide the reason for an event designed to draw together residents of the Skinker DeBaliviere neighborhood and the surrounding community together.
The life of Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. will be commemorated through a lively evening of singing, dance, drama and inspirational speakers in what may be one of the largest local events commemorating Dr. King’s birthday, January 15.
The service will be held at 7 p.m. January 7, 1989, at Grace and Peace Fellowship, 5574 Delmar at Clara, and will be followed by a dessert reception in the church assembly hall. Dr. Thomas Hoerr, director of New City School, will emcee the evening’s festivities. ‘ The event is sponsored by the Neighborhood Services Coordinating Committee, the Skinker DeBaliviere Community Council, and neighborhood business and institutions.
For more information on the commemoration, or to volunteer your help with a variety of tasks, please call 862-5122 or 367-8959.
