Sunday afternoon, SCLC continued their partnership with The Jewish Community Relations Bureau and American Jewish Community by taking part in their annual “Interfaith Service.” The service was held at the Community Christian Church, 4601 Main St., KCMO and a record number of attendants packed the church. This event is one of many activities that are scheduled during the month of January in celebration of Dr. King’s national holiday. During the Interfaith Service, Bunni Copaken, Community Volunteer with Kansas City Friends of Alvin Ailey, was given the 2012 Evelyn Wasserstrom award. Music was provided by the SCLC Mass Youth Choir and Tim Whitmer & Everette DeVan. A special dance celebration was rendered by “The Beloved Community” dancers; choreography by Rev. Michelle Harris-Gloyer. The guest speaker for the afternoon was well known writer, Leonard Pitts, Jr.
