"We're ALWAYS Better together" - See you at the MLK Celbration

Mlk Celebration - (Sunday, January 16, 2011, 5:30 pm )

Once again it is the pleasure of the Church in Sacramento, California, to inform you that many church leaders city-wide have come together in an attempt to plan and prepare for the upcoming Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration to take place Sunday evening, January 16 at Capital Christian Center. On behalf of all of the pastors and church leaders that have taken part in the initial preparations, we would be honored to have you and your congregation attend this celebration at 5:30 pm. Thank you for your prayer covering for this event!


William Jessup University continues to generously provide the MLK Scholarship Committee scholarships  for students in the Sacramento region. The hope is that between all of the churches in this region, we will raise $10,000 a year towards the scholarship for some of Sacramento’s brightest and most gifted young people in the region. We are asking all pastors to receive a second offering between now and January 16, 2011. This will insure our participation in the education for future generations. Please bring the offering with you on January 16 to the celebration.

In regards to the order of service, the Martin Luther King, Jr. celebration choirs always embraces the audience into the joyful presence of the LORD.   The guest speaker always furthers that experience with a message from God's Word that blesses and unifies all the congregations in the Sacramento region.  On the day of the event we are asking all pastors to meet at 5:00 pm in the Parlour for a time of fellowship and prayer. Refreshments will be served.

At our planning meetings we are finalizing all our promotional material, including radio spots and all local TV affiliates involved. Two weeks prior to the event we will blitz the airwaves.  We look forward to your attendance church of the city.   Please pray and join us at this event and invite your congregation to participate in this year’s celebration, not only to honor Dr. King, but to pray for America and the direction God is taking our country. If you have any comments, questions, or concerns, please call 856-5690 ext. 224.
