Dr. Walter E. Fluker will be bringing a word of inspiration and challenge to the Springfield community. Many residents of Springfield may remember Rev. Fluker as a former pastor of St. John’s Congregational Church whom he served with his wife Dr. Sharon Fluker and their two sons during the 1980s.  Dr. Fluker is a leading scholar in the theory and praxis of ethical leadership.

Dr. Fluker finds these characteristics exemplified in the work and thought of black-church giants Martin Luther King Jr. and Howard Thurman. We pray that you would come and be inspired Saturday, January 13 at 9:30 at the Sheraton in downtown Springfield. Tickets are available online at bit.ly/MLKBreakfast18 and church office.  (See ad on page 3)
