Early in life, God ordained Dr. Williams' footsteps. Earning numerous honors, he graduated summa cum laude from Florida A&M University and received a Masters of Divinity from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and a Doctorate in Ministry from the United Theological Seminary. In 1986, Dr. Williams was installed as Senior Pastor of Bates Memorial Baptist Church located in Smoketown, one of the poorest zip codes in Jefferson County, Louisville, Kentucky. The congregation has grown exponentially, seeing its membership increase from a hundred members to over five thousand members. In addition, the ministries of the church currently provide 58 diverse areas for people to serve and also provide, through the Bates Community Development Corporation, a number of creative ministry opportunities. Often dubbed, “the preacher’s preacher,” Dr. Williams is frequently asked to serve as an instructor and guest speaker for various community wide events, lectures, seminars, workshops, and revivals throughout the country. He is committed to changing the lives of the marginalized people that society has forgotten. The homeless, the drug addicts, the single mothers, the hurting and the suffering all have a purpose and a place in the Kingdom. Through his message of transformation and restoration, Dr. Williams encourages people to believe God, to believe in themselves, and to believe that there is something greater for their lives. He desires that all people seek after and discover their God-ordained purpose by introducing them to the power of the Savior. Dr. Williams is married to the former Leona Michelle Smith of Greensboro, Florida, and they are the proud parents of two daughters, Imani and Nailah Cymone. 6 Revival Sunday • July 13, 2014 ©2014 Trinity United Church of Christ. All Rights Reserved. Any unauthorized use or reproduction is strictly prohibited. Announcements The Temple Praise Choir was founded in the late 1970s as the primary adult choral ensemble of The Temple Church, under the pastoral leadership of the church’s founding pastor, Dr. Michael Lee Graves. Bishop Graves emphasized a “balanced” approach to worship and the importance of incorporating all genre of music in each worship experience. Nearly 40 years later, the Temple Praise Choir still serves as the primary adult choir of the church and sings for most worship services. It also continues to follow the mandate for “balanced” worship by infusing anthems, hymns, and spirituals, with traditional and contemporary gospel as they seek to reach the many different types of people who may attend worship each week. Over the years, the Temple Praise Choir has traveled all over the country singing with many different ministries and has been called to the share the stage or record with numerous recording artists, from CeCe Winans, Vanessa Bell Armstrong, and Darryl Coley, to Stevie Wonder, Patti LaBelle, and the Nashville Symphony Orchestra . The Temple Praise Choir has also appeared on Bobby Jones Gospel. The Temple Praise Choir has released several recordings, and in June of 2014 embarked upon its latest live recording, Temple Live III to be released in the fall.

Come, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, and we will no longer be in disgrace.” . . . They replied, “Let us start rebuilding.” So they began this good work. nehemiah 2:17-18 niV Family, When Trinity UCC embarked on our journey to Raise the Roof in August of 2013, we were stepping out on faith. God had provided a vision to Pastor Moss to reach beyond basic infrastructure updates for our church, and to instead stand with His teachings to be good stewards of His Creation, and to install a Green roof and other energy efficient updates. We have now raised pledges from our church family of over $4.8 million . . . a stone’s throw away from our goal of $5 million! The good news is that we will soon shift our focus from encouraging pledges, to completing our pledges. The even better news is that we will also soon begin to actually “Raise the Roof” as projects that are now in their planning stage move into an implementation stage. Currently, we are less than $200,000 away from our goal. This could easily be achieved if 700 members/families: • Pledged $10 a month for 4 years, or $120 a year, we would exceed our goal by $136,000! • Pledged $5 a week, for 3 years, or $160 a year, we would exceed our goal by $346,000! If you have yet to pledge, it would be wonderful if you have it in your heart to do so in the next week or so. If you have already made your pledge, it will be critical of the coming months, and even years, for you to meet your commitments. Thank you for your prayers, thank you for your commitment to our Lord and Savior and His church, and thank you for considering a pledge to Trinity UCC’s Raise the Roof Campaign. God bless you and yours, Rev. Mark A. Smith Executive Minister of Stewardship 8 Stay informed… Visit the Raise the Roof web site: www.raisetheroofcampaign.org.

Sunday, July 20, 2014 following the 11:00 a.m. worship service Prof. Jon Rieder, author of Gospel of Freedom: Martin Luther King, Jr.'s Letter from Birmingham Jail and the Struggle That Changed a Nation "I am in Birmingham because injustice is here," declared Martin Luther King, Jr. He had come to that city of racist terror convinced that massive protest could topple Jim Crow. But the insurgency faltered. To revive it, King made a sacrificial act on Good Friday, April 12, 1963: he was arrested. Alone in his cell, reading a newspaper, he found a statement from eight "moderate" clergymen who branded the protests extremist and "untimely." King drafted a furious rebuttal that emerged as the "Letter from Birmingham Jail" – wa work that would take its place among the masterpieces of American moral argument alongside those of Thoreau and Lincoln. His insistence on the urgency of "Freedom Now" would inspire not just the marchers of Birmingham and Selma, but peaceful insurgents from Tiananmen to Tahrir Squares. Scholar Jonathan Rieder delves deeper than anyone before into the Letter-illuminating both its timeless message and its crucial position in the history of civil rights. Rieder has interviewed King's surviving colleagues, and located rare audiotapes of King speaking in the mass meetings of 1963. Gospel of Freedom gives us a startling perspective on the Letter and the man who wrote it: an angry prophet who chastised American whites, found solace in the faith and resilience of the slaves, and knew that moral appeal without struggle never brings justice.

February • Psalm 119:105-106 (NIV) Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. I have taken an oath and confirmed it, that I will follow your righteous laws. March • John 15:10 (NIV) If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. April • Romans 14:19 (NIV) Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification. LiVinG GReen May • Psalm 24:1 (NIV) The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it. June • Genesis 1:29-30 (NIV) Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so. 20 Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundations? Tell me if you understand. Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it? On what were its footings set or who laid its cornerstone while the morning stars sang together for joy! August • Deuteronomy 24:19 (niV) When you are harvesting in your field and you overlook a sheaf, do not go back to get it. Leave it for the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow, so that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. LiBeRATinG ALL September • Galatians 5:1 (NIV) It is for freedom that Christ set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. October • Galatians 5:13 (NIV) You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in Love. November • Galatians 3:28 (NIV) There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. December • Luke 4:18-19 (NIV) The spirit of the Lord is on me, because he anointed me to preach good news to the poor, he has sent me to proclaim freedom for the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord.
