Informational Briefing and Rally
Commemorating the 50-Year Anniversary of the March on Washington
On August 28, 1963, Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. gave his famous “I Have a Dream Speech” on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. Organized by a coalition of civil rights activist, labor, and religious organizations, the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom was attended by about 250,000 supporters. In addition to a means to demonstrate support for civil rights legislation proposed by then President John F. Kennedy, the historic march was utilized to demand equal access to public accommodations, a law against racial discrimination in the workplace, and an end to disenfranchisement.Please join Assemblymember Shirley N. Weber and Members of the California Legislative Black Caucus (CLBC) as they commemorate the 50-Year Anniversary of the March on Washington, D.C. for Jobs and Freedom. Assemblymember Weber and the CLBC will host two events, which will focus on how “The Great March on Washington” served as a catalyst for the passage of landmark reforms such as the voting and civil rights acts. The events will also explore topics relating to equal opportunity as well as further explore the circumstances surrounding Trayvon Martin’s death and examine George Zimmerman’s murder trial and not-guilty verdict.

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
The 3rd Sabbath in August is Home Coming Sabbath at Capitol City SDA Church! I (Kelli Angus) was asked to assemble a choir small or large to render two selections for Home Coming Sabbath. If it is your desire to use your vocal talents to be a blessing to others that day, I invite you to minister with me. Remember, this is ministry for all of us!
If you haven’t noticed, the signs of the times are rapidly happening as outlined in The Gospels and in Daniel & Revelation and it’s time to pierce hearts and touch souls and care about what others are going through so we can see each other in the kingdom. Come, minister with me. Two selections on Sabbath. Tell a friend because I am sure I do not have everyone’s phone and email address.
Look forward to seeing you at the first rehearsal Saturday August 3rd at 4pm. Bring a visitor or someone who hasn’t been to Capitol in a while.
Thank you, God Bless and Maranatha!
Kelli Angus
A righteous man falls many times, gets up; re-consecrates his life to the Lord and starts again. Are you that righteous man? Starting anew to bring honor for Lord! -

Pastor Palmer became a Seventh-day Adventist under the Leadership of Elder Ricardo Graham (currently the President of the Pacific Union of Seventh-day Adventist) who at the time was pastoring the Mayfair Seventh-day Adventist Church in Stockton CA. Pastor Palmer thanks God for the leadership of the Mayfair Church for showing him how to live according to the will of God. In his ministry as a pastoral leader, Pastor Palmer has renovated churches, baptized, and served on community boards along with having both a radio and television program. God blessed him to write several articles for the Decatur Daily Newspaper.

He loves people and believes that by the grace of God, he can be instrumental in helping people find their way to Jesus. One of his favorite scriptures in the Bible is John 14:1 where Jesus says, "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in Me." He also enjoys M. Scott Peck's quote from the book the Road Less Traveled, "Life is Difficult."
