MLK Day 2019: A Stone of Hope

"With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day." —Martin Luther King, Jr., I Have a Dream speech

Join the Offices of Race Relations and Social Justice at Madison Church (Grand Rapids, Mich.) to celebrate the work and words of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on Monday, Jan. 21, 2019 from 6:30-8:30 p.m. This will be a time to be encouraged to continue in our work for Gospel-founded racial justice.
