Community Church Inc., headquartered jn Columbia, February 4 asked President Ronald W. Reagan to declare Sunday, February 22 as a National Day of Prayer and Remembrance for the murdered children children of Atlanta; Ga. . '.. vV. The Martin Luther King Jr. Community Church, Inc., a three-year-old new Christian Denomination, named for the slain leader of the Southern Christian : . . AA A. it i f.! J A. xeaaersnip conierence, in a reiier w mc rrcsmcm urg ed his "continued leadership in bringing national atten ; tion to the tragedy of the systematic slaughter of children in Atlanta." The letter further urged the Presi dent to "call on all of the American People. . .to unite in prayer at 12 noon throughout the nation, wherever they 1 "might be at that "hour." Y In the non-violent spirit of love that characterized Dr. . King's life, the Church urged that prayers be given not only for the victims, but for ihe killer(s), as well. They asked the President to urge prayers, "In memory of the innocent victims, to stay the hands of the killer(s), to ask for mercy for the perpetrator(s), and that th perpetrators) be brought to justice." The Church is undertaking a . nationwide campaign to involve religious groups oi an persuasions, as wen as student,- fraternal, and other groups in this special ef fort. According to Dr. Willamae Abraras, originator of the plan and national Coordinator of the effort, "It is a fact that the conventional investigative methods have been tried to stop the killings, but until how, nothing has worked. Not only must we feel a sense of outrage at these senseless killings, we must also feel a sense of loss. Who knows but one of, these children might have had the potential to become another Martin Luther King. A life that might have enriched mankind is, ended forever." , .' "'-''. In a special mailing to groups across the country, MLKCC, Inc. is asking that special activities and ser vices also be held. Among suggestions are that 17 'candles be lighted, one for each victim; that church bells be tolled 17 times; that children place 17 flowers on altars; and that the names of each of the 17 victims be read during prayers or during special services. A NOTE OF THANKS ' I wish to thank each of you for the many acts of kind ness shown me during my recent illness. The cards, money, flowers, and any other expression were greatly ap preciated.
