The entire Plainfield community is invited to a Martin Luther King Day observance at Grace Episcopal Church at 3:00 PM this afternoon.
Guest speaker will be the Revd C. John Thompson-Quartey, rector of St. Mary's-by-the-Sea, in Point Pleasant. Fr. Thompson-Quartey, a native of Ghana, is a Rutgers graduate and co-chair of the Episcopal Diocese of New Jersey's Anti-Racism Task Force.
His master's thesis at General Theological Seminary in New York was on the life and theology of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
A light reception will follow in the parish hall. The event is free and open to the public. Grace Episcopal Church is at East 7th Street and Cleveland Avenue and is handicap-accessible. Parking available on the street and in the public lot across 7th Street from the church.
