On Sunday, August 27, 2017, the Rev. Jesse L. Jackson, Sr. delivered the sermon. Nearly 500 people filled our sanctuary, social hall, and overflow seating outdoors. NBC29, The Daily Progess, and UU World all reported on the occasion.
During the service we passed out envelopes for the Rainbow PUSH Coalition. We ran out. If you did not receive one on Sunday, or weren’t there to receive one, you can join the organization online.
This is the text and video of his prepared remarks. As you might well imagine, Rev. Jackson was not limited by his prepared text.
