At the Middle Collegiate Church at 122 Second Ave. this morning:
In response to the verdict in the George Zimmerman trial, on Sunday, July 14 at 11:15 am at Middle Collegiate Church, our multiracial congregation, will wear hoodies in memory of Trayvon Martin and those who like him who have been killed. Congregants will be invited to wear their hoodies as the church prays for the healing of our nation.
Senior minister, Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis said, "I am devastated by this verdict. In our confusion and in our grief it is time to gather in God’s house to pray and support each other. As generations before us, we must gather to be rooted in our faith and work toward peace and healing for our country."
