A.C.T. to End Racism

Dear Family:

During the most recent ecumenical gathering of religious communions from around the nation, a historic moment in time was evidenced.  This event was indicative of the movements that took place during Dr. King's time, as it once again reached across ethnicity, gender, creeds and various beliefs to provide a birds-eye view of the things we hold in common that unites us in God.  Such could be seen, as thousands descended upon the National Mall April 3-5, 2018. 
Our commendations to Bishop W. Darin Moore and the National Council of Churches, USA for such an auspicious and memorable way to keep the legacy and dream of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. alive, as well challenge those of us who are still alive to continue to work for rights of the oppressed and others who cannot speak for themselves.   Zion should be most proud to once again serve as a vanguard for others to model.

Dr. Anthony Witherspoon, President
