As a part of their Drum Majors for Love, Truth and Justice partnership, Dr. John M. Perkins and Dr. Paul Louis Metzger will join Dr. Leroy Haynes, Jr. on Sunday, April 11 at Allen Temple CME Church (4236 NE 8th Ave.) to lead a focused time of seeking God’s transformation of the broken relational structures that have erected barriers between the white church and African-American church.

What an evening! As one speaker said, “My view of God just got bigger.” Inspiring addresses by Drs Perkins & Haynes, heartfelt, moving confessions by several others, small group prayer, powerful worship led by the choir and worship team. But in the midst of all the inspiration and good intentions, I appreciated Pastor Merriweather’s blunt caution: we don’t need just another reconciliation prayer meeting–we need sustained, determined movement toward true unity in the Body of Christ. Let’s keep it going!
