Dr. King called on faith communities, specifically the church, to be sanctuary for those in need and to demonstrate public witness to injustice. Through song, narrative, and prophetic reflection, this celebration explores  how faith communities have lived into that call, and what sanctuary and witness look like today. We will end in the act of covenant - mutual commitment to one another and to the ongoing movement for a just reconciliation, the freedom for which King and others worked tirelessly.
