Today we honor the life and enduring legacy of Rev. Jesse Jackson, a global leader, civil rights icon, and tireless advocate for justice. Through courageous leadership, he gave voice to the marginalized, challenged injustice, and called our nation and world to live out their highest ideals. He reminded us that faith must be demonstrated everywhere, in the church, business, government, and the streets, inspiring generations to stand for dignity and equality.

We are especially grateful for his lasting impact on the Ebenezer AME Church family. Over the years, he preached and worshipped with us, encouraging us to continue the fight, and faithfully supported our church and Pastors for more than 40 years.

We celebrate his life and legacy with deep gratitude. May we continue to keep hope alive.
