As we reflect on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s enduring vision of justice, unity, and diversity, the Grand Canyon Synod invites you to gather with us for a special Celebration of Diversity event on Sunday, January 19, 2025, from 3-5 pm. This event, held at two locations within our synod, honors Dr. King’s legacy and invites us to come together as a diverse, faith-rooted community committed to love and justice.
This year, we’re hosting the event at two churches:
