Save the Date - We hope to see you there! 
Honoring a Legacy
On this day, we commemorate and celebrate the legacy of Dr. King's lifetime commitment to equality, justice, and civil rights for all people and carry forward the enduring theme: "Remember! Celebrate! Act! A Day On, Not A Day Off!" On April 3, 1968, Dr. King delivered his I've Been to the Mountain Top speech at the Mason Temple (Church of God in Christ Headquarters) in Memphis, Tennessee, during which he said:

“Let us rise up tonight with a greater readiness. Let us stand with a greater determination. And let us move on in these powerful days of challenge to make America what it ought to be. We have an opportunity to make America a better nation.”
