Greetings, it is time for our EIGHTH ANNUAL MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. PRAYER BREAKFAST. With the beginning of the second decade of the 21st Century, the youth of our area will explore the relevance of Dr. Kings’ speech to today’s society. They will connect their generation’s concerns with the concerns voiced by Dr. King approximately 50 years ago with ‘The Church’, ‘Consumerism’, and ‘Service to Others’.
Our honorees this year are the students of the 1954 Boycott and Demonstration at Langston High School. This event is featured in the AT&T 2010 Tennessee African American History Calendar. Northeast State Community College Choir will provide music.
Tickets remain $10.00. Ticket may be purchased at Money Services, 1111 North Roan St., Johnson City, TN, M-F, 9:30-5:30 P. M. You may also contact Angela Smith-Harris 929-3084 or Wayne Robertson at 232-6219.
