Special Event
We Shall Not Be Moved: Sanctuary, Witness and Covenant. A Tribute to Dr. King
Monday, January 16, 2017 | 2:00pm
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 will explore 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.
Featuring:
- Music by Patrick Lundy & the Ministers of Music, the Washington National Cathedral house band and ADAMS BEAT.
- Testimonies by the Rev. Canon Kelly Brown Douglas, Canon Theologian, Washington National Cathedral; Judith Browne Dianis, Executive Director, Advancement Project; and Greisa Martinez, Field Organizer, United We Dream
- Dramatic performance by the talented students of Duke Ellington School of the Arts
