Annual Martin Luther King Celebration & Peacemaker Award

The 24th Annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day Celebration and Hawai’i Peacemaker Award will be held on Monday, January 18th at 7:00PM at Church of the Crossroads.

The Rev. Dr. Geoffrey Black, recently- elected President and General Minister of our denomination, the United Church of Christ, will be the Keynote Speaker.

The Hawaii Peacemaker Award will be presented during the service, and this year’s recipient is Dr. Amy Agbayani, Director of Student Equity, Excellence and Diversity at the University of Hawai’ i at Manoa.
Dr. Agbayani is a tireless advocate for the civil rights of Filipinos and other marginalized groups in Hawaii today. She was founder and first director of Operation Manong — now known as the Office of Multicultural Sciences, an organization providing training to all UH-Manoa students on multiculturalism and pluralism. Amy was appointed first chair of the Hawaii Civil Rights Commission. She also helped to start several civil rights community organizations.

The Crossroads’ Choir will perform spirituals, music of Verne de la Peña, Dave Brubeck and Langston Hughes.
Invite your neighbors and friends to this meaningful celebration. And also, please bring cookies, finger food and pupu for the reception following the MLK Service.
