Learn-a-thon 2024
This year’s MLK theme is “Marching On,” because the work of racial reconciliation is always ongoing! Each generation must look at the example of the past and then renew their commitment to march on, discerning what it looks like for that particular generation. We encourage you to participate in our fourth annual Learn-a-thon as one way to keep “marching on” in the work of seeking reconciliation, peace and justice. Read More

Abe’s Story of Hope
The theme of our 2023 MLK celebration was “Hope in Action.” Even 60 years after Dr. King’s “I Have a Dream,” speech, much work remains to bring us to true justice, reconciliation and peace. To sustain this work, we need hope. But how do you carry hope when things move so slowly and it’s two steps forward, one step backward? Read More
