1. EDITORIAL COMMENTS:
- New Orleans Police should have a blush of shame
This week projected media images of another black man being beaten by white police officers. Tell me, why is it, always white police officers beating a black man? I cannot recall seeing images of white or black police officers beating a white man. There is something wrong with this picture; of black men being beaten by white police officers and rarely, if ever, images of a white man being beaten by white or black police officers; it is racism.
Those New Orleans Police should have a blush of shame because it took two young-looking police officers to contain a 64-year-old black retired schoolteacher. Wow!
Those police officers should be fired, not only for what they did to retired schoolteacher Robert Davis but also because they are obviously not in any kind of physical shape. They were physically and mentally unqualified. They were wrestling and struggling with Davis and I could hear their heavy breathing as I watched the images on the television and even when I read accounts in the newspaper. I was out of breath for them. If I were those police officers and their supervisors, I would have, at least “a blush of shame” for the dishonor they brought on the New Orleans Police Department. Their actions are also indicative of a lack of police training. If I were either one of the police officers, I would be ashamed that it took two of us, backed up by a police officer on a horse, to subdue a 64-year-old retiree. They have lost their bragging rights.
And, the lawyer for the police officers and his illogic defense called to my mind the statement that I have heard that is suppose to be a joke, “99% of lawyers give the rest a bad name.” After hearing that lawyer, it’s easy to understand the proliferation of lawyer jokes. That lawyer is not one of 1%!
I shutter to think that a young black man in superb physical condition would have been shot to death by the police officers – I am sure of it!
Scandals are taking over the Bush Presidency
The Bush presidency is being consumed by scandals involving the highest leadership in the Republican Party and those closest to the President. And, those scandals are only the ones that have been made public. I would bet that there are others that have not yet been exposed. Deputy White House Chief of Staff Karl Rove heads the list of questionable personalities close to the President.
The bad behavior so close to the White House makes me more suspicious of the decisions that were made to go to war in Iraq and saddens me of the loss of lives of our young military members in Iraq and Afghanistan. Misbehavior is usually not a one-time event; being caught is. The scandals look like a pattern to me.
- The President stages a soldiers’ photo-op
The Commander-in-Chief sets up a photo-op with handpicked soldiers prepped with questions that they might be asked. The Washington Post reported in today’s edition that the soldiers were rehearsed before going on the live broadcast. Gee whiz, let the soldiers do what soldiers do best and do not hinder them with phony press conferences.
I don’t care what the soldiers say, the war is going badly and our young men and women need to come back home. We need to do whatever it takes to bring them back home. One more soldier killed or maimed is too many. Bush says, “We got a strategy, and it's a clear strategy." In my opinion, he is wrong, we don’t have a clear strategy and if you don’t have a clear strategy, you don’t have a strategy.
There’s an old saying in the military, “When you find yourself digging yourself in a hole, stop digging.” America needs to “stop digging the hole” in Iraq; and, in Afghanistan, too.
I was encouraged by one thing, and that is that no Black Americans were selected to participate in the charade.
- The Millions More Movement Commemoration held tomorrow
The Millions More Movement, marking the 10th anniversary of the Million Man March, will gather in Washington, DC tomorrow (Saturday, October 15, 2005) beginning at 5:30 a.m. and ending in the afternoon with an address by Minister Louis Farrakhan and other leaders. I am sure that it will be shown on C-Span.
2. LETTER FROM THE REVEREND DIONISIO MAZUZE OF THE EIGHTEENTH EPISCOPAL DISTRICT:
My brother and sisters in Christ
We are so thankful to God who gave us the single opportunity to meet and to know wonderful and lovable people like you.
Our family is facing trying times. We experienced having a loving dad in our lives and his death made our hearts sad. We have experienced such deep pain because exactly on the day that my father passed away, we lost my uncle, the only living member of my mother’s family 30 days prior to our father’s death. It was not easy for me see my mother grieve so soon after losing her uncle.
But, in all this we thank God for He comforted us and sent His people to make us understand, “…to every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven (Eccles. 3:1). We thank God for the people who preached and spoke words of comfort and for those who prayed with us, and for us.
Yes, dad is gone. We praise God because now we understand that our dad was a man with mission and his life here was not in vain. About 2005 years ago God gave a mission to Joseph, whose mission it was to be an earthly father for our Lord and Savior, Jesus, and to teach him values; to teach him to respect others. So, it was with my father, God placed my father in this world to do something, and he did. God wanted my father to prepare, give a name, a heritage, a history to five boys and two girls. God gave him a very important mission to prepare me to be a pastor (alleluia), and to prepare his children committed stewards. God sent my father to teach us honesty, integrity and the right ways to live and to love humankind.
And, I am sure that God understood that my dad completed his mission through confirmation at the last annual conference. I am an Itinerant Elder and God called my father to rest.
We thank the Rev. Rosa Chilaule, Presiding Elder Machaieie, Brother Patmossi Macamo, the Rev. Pedro Muhate and Jaime Muhate for their presence. Glory be to God for Bishop Sarah Davis for calling upon the 18th Episcopal District to pray for us. Our thanks also to the Reverend Dr. Calvin H. Sydnor III, the Rev. Salomon Nxumalo, Bro. Dan Leeba from 17th Episcopal District), Miss. Sherell Crawford and others for their comforting messages and prayers.
Our family would also like to thank all of you, especially to the wonderfully people of Distrito de Maputo and Presiding Elder Vasco Tui for sending people to comfort and help us.
May God bless all of you,
The Mazuze family
3. AN IMPORTANT RECURRING MESSAGE FROM DR. JEROME HARRIS FOR PREACHERS AFFECTED BY HURRICANE KATRINA:
Dr. Jerome V. Harris, Executive Director of the AMEC Department of Annuity Investment and Insurance has arranged with the annuity investment vendors, Symetra Insurance Company and American Express, to process requests for "Hardship" annuity withdrawals on an EXPEDITED basis for those participants affected by Hurricane Katrina.
All participants assigned to the Eighth (Mississippi and Louisiana), Ninth (Alabama) and Eleventh (Florida) Episcopal Districts are eligible for expedited hardship annuity withdrawals. In an effort to provide more immediate financial assistance to persons in these devastated areas, expedited payments can now be made and received in as soon as 24 hours, depending on the mode of distribution, i.e. Direct Bank Transfer, US Mail, etc. The normal withdrawal process usually requires approximately 3 - 4 weeks, so our pastors and their families are cared for and blessed, in this time of difficulty, with the expedited arrangement.
Participants desiring to avail themselves to this process should contact the AMEC Department of Annuity Investment and Insurance directly at (901) 527-2006 or email: amec_des@bellsouth.com
4. BISHOP WILLIAMS HOLDS AME STATEWIDE HEALTH FAIR:
On Thursday October 6th 2005 a press conference was held at 12 noon. Bishop Preston W. Williams II, the presiding prelate of the African Methodist Episcopal Churches in South Carolina, along with Governor Mike Huckabee of Arkansas, Chairman of the National Governor’s Association, Governor Mark Sanford of South Carolina and Raymond S. Greenburg, President of The Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), expounded on the importance of health in the lives of all Americans. Their remarks were given at the AME Statewide Health Fair, which was held at Mother Emmanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina
As a part of Governor Huckabee’s Healthy America Initiative, he is traveling across the country, visiting governors to learn about outstanding health and wellness programs in their states. His first visit was to Charleston where he selected the Seventh Episcopal District of the AME Church’s Health-e-AME Program as a “best practice” model. The Health-e-AME Program is an outreach project of the AME / MUSC partnership, which encourages people to make healthy lifestyle choices.
The free AME Health Fair was comprised of more than 20 booths of health professionals providing information and free screenings for high blood pressure and blood sugar levels, high cholesterol, Sickle Cell Anemia, prostate, breast and cervical cancer, and HIV/AIDS. MUSC’s Cancer van, dental van and Project Sugar van were on-site to provide free screenings and exams. Governor Huckabee and Governor Sanford toured the fair with AME and MUSC leaders and heard how the Health-e-AME partnership evolved into a model program that serves tens of thousands of South Carolinians each year.
Ms. Phyllis Allen, the AME Seventh District’s Nutrition Director, provided healthy cooking demonstrations and Ms. Rosetta Swinton, the District’s Health Director, was present to answer all questions relating to the Health-e-AME Program.
The Health-e-AME Program is designed to promote wholeness of mind, body and spirit. Its focus is to encourage healthy lifestyles through healthy eating, regular exercise and early disease screening and prevention.
The Healthy America: Wellness Where We Live, Work and Learn is a new initiative to raise national awareness about the urgent need for all Americans - children, teenagers, adults and seniors - to live healthier, more active lives. It is designed to help the nation’s governors enact effective programs that reduce obesity, improve wellness and promote physical activity.

5. INSPIRATIONAL MOMENT:
“Whatever Your Cross"
Whatever your cross,
Whatever your pain,
There will always be sunshine
After the rain.
Perhaps you may stumble,
Perhaps even fall,
But God's always ready
To answer your call.
He knows every heartache,
Sees every tear,
A word from His lips
Can calm every fear.
Your sorrows may linger
Throughout the night,
But suddenly vanish
At dawn's early light.
The Savior is waiting
Somewhere above,
To give you His grace
And send you His love.
Whatever your cross,
Whatever your pain,
God always sends rainbows
After the rain.

1. REDACTIE COMMENTAREN:
-De Politie van New Orleans zou moeten hebben van schande blozen
Deze week ontwierp media beelden van de een andere zwarte mens die door witte politieambtenaren wordt geslagen. Vertel me, waarom het, altijd witte politieambtenaren sla een zwarte mens? Ik kan niet aan het zien van beelden van witte of zwarte politieambtenaren herinneren die een witte mens slaan.

Die politieambtenaren zouden, niet alleen voor wat moeten worden in brand gestoken zij aan teruggetrokken leraar Robert Davis deden maar ook omdat zij duidelijk niet in enig soort fysieke vorm zijn. Zij waren fysisch ongeschikt en geestelijk. Zij worstelden en worstelden metDavis en ik kon hun zware ademhaling horen aangezien ik op de beelden op de televisie lette en zelfs wanneer ik rekeningen in de krant las. Ik was uit adem voor hen. Als ik die politieambtenaren en hun supervisors was, zou ik hebben, minstens „bloos van schande“ voor de schande die zij op de Afdeling van de Politie van New Orleans hebben gebracht. Hun acties zijn ook indicatief van een gebrek aan politie opleiding. Als ik één van beide één van de politieambtenaren was, zou ik beschaamd zijn dat het twee van ons nam, gesteund door een politieambtenaar op een paard, om een 64 éénjarigengepensioneerde te onderwerpen. Zij hebben hun het opscheppen rechten verloren.
En, de advocaat voor politie riepen de ambtenaren en zijn illogic defensie naar mijn mening de verklaring die ik heb gehoord ben die veronderstel een grap te zijn, „99% van advocaten geven de rest een slechte naam.“ Na het horen van die advocaat, is het gemakkelijk om de proliferatie van advocaatgrappen te begrijpen. Die advocaat is geen één van 1%!
I blind om te denken dat een jonge zwarte mens in buitengewone fysieke voorwaarde aan dood door de politieambtenaren zou ontsproten zijn - ik ben zeker van het!
De schandalen nemen het Voorzitterschap van de Struik over
Het voorzitterschap van de Struik wordt door schandalen verbruikt die de hoogste leiding in de Republikeinse Partij en die dichtst impliceren aan de Voorzitter. En, die schandalen zijn slechts de die openbaar zijn gemaakt. Ik zou wedden dat er anderen zijn die nog niet zijn blootgesteld. Leidt de Leider van het Witte Huis van de afgevaardigde van Personeel Karl Rove de lijst van twijfelachtige persoonlijkheden dicht bij de Voorzitter.
Het slechte gedrag dicht bij het Witte Huis maakt me zo van de besluiten verdachter die om naar oorlog in Irak werden genomente gaan en bedroeft me van het verlies van het leven van onze jonge militaire leden inIrak enAfghanistan. Misbehavior is gewoonlijk geen éénmalige gebeurtenis; wordt gevangen. De schandalen kijken als een patroon aan me.
- De stadia van de Voorzitter een foto-op van militairen
De bevelhebber-in-Leider zet foto-op met uitgelezen militairen op prepped met vragen dat zij zouden kunnen worden gevraagd. De Washington Post rapporteerde in de uitgave van vandaag dat de militairen alvorens op de levende uitzending te gaan werden gerepeteerd. Gee whiz, liet de militairen doen welke militairen beste doen en hen niet met phony persconferenties belemmeren.
Ik geef wat niet de militairen zeggen, slecht gaat de oorlog en onze jonge mannen en vrouwen moeten naar huis terugkomen. Wij moeten doen wat het neemt om achter hen naar huis te brengen. Één meer gedood of verminkte militair is teveel. De struik zegt, „wij kregen een strategie, en het is een duidelijke strategie.“ Naar mijn mening, is hij verkeerd, hebben wij geen duidelijke strategie en als u geen duidelijke strategie hebt, hebt u geen strategie.
Er zijn het oude zeggen in militair, „wanneer u zich vindt gravend in een gat, ophoudt gravend.“ Amerika moet „ophouden gravend het gat“ inIrak; en, inAfghanistan, ook.
Ik werd aangemoedigd door één ding, en dat is dat geen Zwarte Amerikanen om aan charade werden geselecteerd deel te nemen.
- Miljoenen Meer morgen gehouden Herdenking van de Beweging
Miljoenen Meer Beweging, die de 10de verjaardag van de Miljoen Man Maart merkt, zullen zich in Washington, DC dat morgen (Zaterdag, Oktober 15, 2005) in 5:30 a.m. en in de middag met een adres beëindigt door Minister Louis Farrakhan en andere leiders begint verzamelen. Ik ben zeker dat het op c-Spanwijdte zal worden getoond.
2. BRIEF VAN REVEREND DIONISIO MAZUZE VAN HET ACHTTIENDE BISSCHOPPELIJKE DISTRICT:
Mijn broer en zusters in Christus
Wij zijn zo dankbaar aan God die ons de enige kans bood om prachtige en lieve mensen als u te ontmoeten en te kennen.
Onze familie ziet het proberen van tijden onder ogen. Wij ervoeren het hebben van een houdende van papa in ons leven en zijn dood maakte onze harten droevig. Wij hebben dergelijke diepe pijn ervaren omdat precies op de dag die mijn vader overleed, wij mijn oom, het enige levende lid van de familie van mijn moeder 30 dagen voorafgaand aan de dood van onze vader verloren. Het was niet gemakkelijk voor me ziet mijn moeder zo spoedig na het verliezen van haar oom grieve.
Maar in dit alles zijn wij god zij dank want hij ons troostte en Zijn mensen stuurde om ons te maken begrijpen, „… aan elk ding daar een seizoen, en een tijd aan elk doel onder de hemel (Eccles. 3:1). Wij god zij dank voor de mensen die predikten en woorden van comfort en voor zij spraken die met ons, en voor ons baden.
Ja, is de papa gegaan. Wij prijzen God omdat wij begrijpen nu dat onze papa een mens met opdracht was en zijn leven hier niet vergeefs was. Ongeveer 2005 jaar geleden gaf de God een opdracht aan Joseph, van wie opdracht het een aardse vader voor onze Lord en Savior, Jesus was te zijn, en hem waarden te onderwijzen; om hem te onderwijzen om anderen te eerbiedigen. Zo, was het met mijn vader, plaatste de God mijn vader in deze wereld om iets te doen, en hij. De god wilde mijn vader een naam, een erfenis, een geschiedenis aan vijf jongens en twee meisjes voorbereiden, geven. De god gaf hem een zeer belangrijke opdracht om me voor te bereiden om pastor (alleluia) te zijn, en zijn kinderen toegewijde beheerders voor te bereiden. De god stuurde mijn vader om ons eerlijkheid, integriteit en de juiste manieren te onderwijzen te leven en van mensdom te houden.
En, ik ben zeker dat de God begreep dat mijn papa zijn opdracht door bevestiging op de laatste jaarlijkse conferentie voltooide. Ik ben Rondtrekkende Ouder en een God riep mijn vader om te rusten.
Wij danken Toer Rosa Chilaule, het Voorzitten Oudere Machaieie, Broer Patmossi Macamo, Toer Pedro Muhate en Jaime Muhate voor hun aanwezigheid. De glorie is aan God voor Bischop Sarah Davis voor het verzoeken van het 18de Bisschoppelijke District om voor ons te bidden. Onze dank ook aan Reverend Dr.Calvin H. Sydnor III, Toer Salomon Nxumalo, Bro. Dan Leeba van 17de Bisschoppelijk District), Misser. Sherell Crawford en anderen voor hun troostende berichten en gebeden.
Onze familie zou ook iedereen willen wonderfully danken, vooral aan de mensen van Distrito DE Maputo en Voorzittende Oudere Vasco Tui voor het sturen van mensen naar comfort en ons helpen.
De God van mei zegent iedereen,
De familie Mazuze

2. BRIEF VAN REVEREND DIONISIO MAZUZE VAN HET ACHTTIENDE BISSCHOPPELIJKE DISTRICT:
Mijn broer en zusters in Christus
Wij zijn zo dankbaar aan God die ons de enige kans bood om prachtige en lieve mensen als u te ontmoeten en te kennen.
Onze familie ziet het proberen van tijden onder ogen. Wij ervoeren het hebben van een houdende van papa in ons leven en zijn dood maakte onze harten droevig. Wij hebben dergelijke diepe pijn ervaren omdat precies op de dag die mijn vader overleed, wij mijn oom, het enige levende lid van de familie van mijn moeder 30 dagen voorafgaand aan de dood van onze vader verloren. Het was niet gemakkelijk voor me ziet mijn moeder zo spoedig na het verliezen van haar oom grieve.
Maar in dit alles zijn wij god zij dank want hij ons troostte en Zijn mensen stuurde om ons te maken begrijpen, „… aan elk ding daar een seizoen, en een tijd aan elk doel onder de hemel (Eccles. 3:1). Wij god zij dank voor de mensen die predikten en woorden van comfort en voor zij spraken die met ons, en voor ons baden.
Ja, is de papa gegaan. Wij prijzen God omdat wij begrijpen nu dat onze papa een mens met opdracht was en zijn leven hier niet vergeefs was. Ongeveer 2005 jaar geleden gaf de God een opdracht aan Joseph, van wie opdracht het een aardse vader voor onze Lord en Savior, Jesus was te zijn, en hem waarden te onderwijzen; om hem te onderwijzen om anderen te eerbiedigen. Zo, was het met mijn vader, plaatste de God mijn vader in deze wereld om iets te doen, en hij. De god wilde mijn vader een naam, een erfenis, een geschiedenis aan vijf jongens en twee meisjes voorbereiden, geven. De god gaf hem een zeer belangrijke opdracht om me voor te bereiden om pastor (alleluia) te zijn, en zijn kinderen toegewijde beheerders voor te bereiden. De god stuurde mijn vader om ons eerlijkheid, integriteit en de juiste manieren te onderwijzen te leven en van mensdom te houden.
En, ik ben zeker dat de God begreep dat mijn papa zijn opdracht door bevestiging op de laatste jaarlijkse conferentie voltooide. Ik ben Rondtrekkende Ouder en een God riep mijn vader om te rusten.
Wij danken Toer Rosa Chilaule, het Voorzitten Oudere Machaieie, Broer Patmossi Macamo, Toer Pedro Muhate en Jaime Muhate voor hun aanwezigheid. De glorie is aan God voor Bischop Sarah Davis voor het verzoeken van het 18de Bisschoppelijke District om voor ons te bidden. Onze dank ook aan Reverend Dr.Calvin H. Sydnor III, Toer Salomon Nxumalo, Bro. Dan Leeba van 17de Bisschoppelijk District), Misser. Sherell Crawford en anderen voor hun troostende berichten en gebeden.
Onze familie zou ook iedereen willen wonderfully danken, vooral aan de mensen van Distrito DE Maputo en Voorzittende Oudere Vasco Tui voor het sturen van mensen naar comfort en ons helpen.
De God van mei zegent iedereen,
De familie Mazuze

„Wat ook Uw Kruis is“Wat ook uw kruis is,Wat ook uw pijn is,Er zal altijd zonneschijn zijnNa de regen.Misschien kunt u struikelen,Misschien zelfs daling,Maar altijd klaar GodOm uw vraag te beantwoorden.Hij kent elke heartache,Ziet elke scheur,Een woord van Zijn lippenKan elke vrees kalmeren.Uw verdriet kan treuzelenDoor de nacht,Maar verdwijn plotselingBij het vroege licht van de dageraad.Savior wachtErgens hierboven,Om u Zijn gunst te gevenEn verzend u Zijn liefde.Wat ook uw kruis is,Wat ook uw pijn is,De god verzendt altijd regenbogenNa de regen.

1. COMENTARIOS DEL EDITORIAL:
-El policía de New Orleans debe tener una ruborización de la vergüenza
Esta semana proyectó imágenes de los medios de otro hombre negro que era batido por los oficiales de policía blancos. ¿Dígame, por qué es él, oficiales de policía siempre blancos que baten a un hombre negro? No puedo recordar el ver de imágenes de los oficiales de policía blancos o negros que baten a un hombre blanco. Hay algo mal con este cuadro; de los hombres negros que son batidos por los oficiales de policía blancos y raramente, si siempre, las imágenes de un hombre blanco que es batido por los oficiales de policía blancos o negros; es racismo.
Eso policía de New Orleans debe tener una ruborización de la vergüenza porque tomó a dos oficiales de policía joven-que miraban para contener un maestro jubilado negro de 64 años. ¡Ululación!
Esos oficiales de policía deben ser encendidos, no sólo para lo que hicieron al maestro jubilado Roberto Davis pero también porque no están obviamente en ninguna clase de forma física. Eran físicamente y mentalmente incompetente. Eran de lucha y la lucha conDavis y mí podría oír su respiración pesada mientras que miré las imágenes en la televisión y aun cuando leí cuentas en el periódico. Estaba fuera de respiración para ellas. Si fuera esos oficiales de policía y sus supervisores, tendría, por lo menos “una ruborización de la vergüenza” para la deshonra que trajeron en el departamento del policía de New Orleans. Sus acciones son también indicative de una carencia del entrenamiento del policía. Si fuera cualquiera uno de los oficiales de policía, estaría avergonzado que tomó a dos de nosotros, sostenido por un oficial de policía en un caballo, para someter a un jubilado de 64 años. Han perdido las sus derechas de jactancia.
Y, el abogado para los oficiales de policía y su defensa illogic llamada a mi mente la declaración que he oído que que es suponga para ser una broma, el “99% de abogados da a resto un mal nombre.” Después de la audiencia que el abogado, él es fácil entender la proliferación de las bromas del abogado. ¡Ese abogado no es uno de el 1%!
¡El obturador I para pensar que a los oficiales de policía habría tirado a un hombre negro joven en condiciones físicas magníficas a la muerte - yo es seguro de él!
Los escándalos están asumiendo el control la presidencia de Bush
La presidencia de Bush está siendo consumida por los escándalos que implican la dirección más alta en el partido republicano y ésos más cercanos al presidente. Y, esos escándalos son solamente los que se han hecho público. Apostaría que hay otros que todavía no se han expuesto. El jefe de personal de diputado White House el Rove de Karl dirigió la lista de personalidades cuestionables cerca del presidente.
El mal comportamiento así que cerca de la casa blanca me hace más sospechoso de las decisiones que fueron tomadas para ir a guerrear enIraq y me entristece de la pérdida de vidas de nuestros miembros militares jóvenes enIraq yAfganistán. Misbehavior no es generalmente un acontecimiento de una sola vez; está siendo siendo cogido. Los escándalos parecen un patrón a mí.
- El presidente efectúa a soldados foto-de Op. Sys.
El comandante en jefe instala un foto-de Op. Sys. con los soldados manuales manualmente preparados con preguntas que él puede ser que sea pedida. El poste de Washington divulgado en la edición de hoy que ensayaron a los soldados antes de ir en la difusión viva. El whiz de Gee, dejó a soldados hacer qué soldados hacen lo más mejor posible y no los obstaculizan con ruedas de prensa phony.
No cuido lo que dicen los soldados, la guerra voy gravemente y nuestros hombres jóvenes y mujeres necesitan volverse a casa. Necesitamos hacer lo que toma para traerle detrás a casa. Un más soldado matado o maimed es demasiado. Bush dice, “conseguimos una estrategia, y es una estrategia clara.” En mi opinión, él es incorrecto, no tenemos una estrategia clara y si usted no tiene una estrategia clara, usted no tiene una estrategia.
Hay un viejo refrán en los militares, “cuando usted se encuentra el cavarse en un agujero, para el cavar.” América necesita “parar el cavar del agujero” enIraq; y, enAfganistán, también.
Una cosa me animé, y ésa es que no se seleccionó a ningunos americanos negros participar en la charada.
- Millones más conmemoración del movimiento llevada a cabo mañana
Millones más movimiento, marcando el 10mo aniversario de millón de hombres marcha, recolectarán en Washington, C.C. (sábado 15 de octubre de 2005) que comienza en 5:30 mañana y que termina mañana por la tarde con una dirección de Minister Louis Farrakhan y otros líderes. Soy seguro que será demostrado en C-Palmo.
2. LETRA DEL DIONISIO MAZUZE DE REVEREND DEL DÉCIMO OCTAVO DISTRICTO EPISCOPAL:
Mi hermano y hermanas en Cristo
Somos tan agradecidos al dios que nos dio la sola oportunidad de satisfacer y de conocer a gente maravillosa y lovable como usted.
Nuestra familia es revestimientos que intentan épocas. Experimentamos el tener de un papá cariñoso en nuestras vidas y su muerte hizo nuestros corazones tristes. Hemos experimentado tal dolor profundo porque exactamente en el día que mi padre pasó lejos, perdimos a mi tío, el único miembro vivo de la familia de mi madre 30 días antes de la muerte de nuestro padre. No era fácil para mí ve a mi madre afligirse tan pronto después de perder a su tío.
Pero, en todo el esto que agradecemos a dios por él nos confortó y envió a su gente para hacer que entendemos, “… a cada cosa hay una estación, y una época a cada propósito bajo cielo (Eccles. 3:1). Agradecemos a dios por la gente que predicó y hablamos palabras de la comodidad y para los que rogaron con nosotros, y para nosotros.
Sí, van al papá. Elogiamos a dios porque ahora entendemos que nuestro papá era un hombre con la misión y su vida aquí no estaba en inútil. Hace aproximadamente 2005 años de dios dio una misión a José, que misión era ser un padre terrenal para nuestro señor y salvador, Jesús, y enseñarle valores; para enseñarlo a respetar otros. Así pues, estaba con mi padre, el dios colocó a mi padre en este mundo para hacer algo, y él. El dios quisiera que mi padre se preparara, da a un nombre, a una herencia, a una historia a cinco muchachos y a dos muchachas. El dios le dio una misión muy importante para prepararme para ser pastor (alleluia), y preparar a sus niños confió a administradores. El dios envió a mi padre para enseñarnos honradez, integridad y las maneras derechas de vivir y de amar el humankind.
Y, soy seguro que el dios entendía que mi papá terminó su misión con la confirmación en la conferencia anual pasada. Soy una anciano y un dios ambulantes llamados mi padre a reclinarse.
Agradecemos el inversor de corriente Rosa Chilaule, Machaieie más viejo de presidencia, hermano Patmossi Macamo, el inversor de corriente Pedro Muhate y Jaime Muhate para su presencia. Glory esté al dios para obispo Sarah Davis para invitar el décimo octavo districto episcopal para rogar para nosotros. Nuestras gracias también al Dr. CalvinH. Sydnor III, el inversor de corriente Salomon Nxumalo, Bro de Reverend. Dan Leeba a partir del 17ma districto episcopal), Srta. Sherell Crawford y otros para sus mensajes y rezos confortantes.
Nuestra familia también quisiera agradecerle, especialmente maravillosamente a la gente de Distrito de Maputo y de Vasco más viejo de presidencia Tui por enviar a gente a la comodidad y ayudarnos.
El dios de mayo le bendice,
La familia de Mazuze

1. COMMENTAIRES D'ÉDITORIAL :
-La police de la Nouvelle-Orléans devrait avoir un rougissement de la honte
Cette semaine a projeté des images de médias d'un autre homme noir battu par les dirigeants blancs de police. Dites-moi, pourquoi êtes il, dirigeants toujours blancs de police battant un homme noir ? Je ne peux pas me rappeler voir des images des dirigeants blancs ou noirs de police battant un homme blanc. Il y a quelque chose mal avec cette image ; des hommes noirs battu par les dirigeants blancs de police et rarement, si jamais, les images d'un homme blanc battu par les dirigeants blancs ou noirs de police ; c'est racisme.
Ces police de la Nouvelle-Orléans devrait avoir un rougissement de la honte parce qu'il a fallu à deux polices jeune-regardantes des dirigeants pour contenir un instituteur retiré par noir de 64 ans. Défaut de la reproduction sonore !
Ces dirigeants de police devraient être mis le feu, non seulement pour ce qu'ils ont fait à l'instituteur retiré Robert Davis mais également parce qu'ils ne sont évidemment pas dans aucun genre de forme physique. Ils étaient physiquement et mentalement incompétents. Ils étaient luttants et la lutte avecDavis et moi pourrait entendre leur respiration lourde pendant que j'observais les images à la télévision et même lorsque j'ai lu des comptes dans le journal. J'étais hors de souffle pour eux. Si j'étais ces dirigeants de police et leurs surveillants, j'aurais, au moins « un rougissement de la honte » pour le déshonneur qu'ils ont apporté sur le département de police de la Nouvelle-Orléans. Leurs actions sont également indicative d'un manque de formation de police. Si j'étais l'un ou l'autre un des dirigeants de police, j'aurais honte qu'il a fallu à deux de nous, soutenu par un dirigeant de police sur un cheval, pour soumettre un retraité de 64 ans. Ils ont perdu leurs droites de vantardise.
Et, l'avocat pour les dirigeants de police et sa défense illogic a appelé à mon avis le rapport que j'ai entendu que qui est supposez pour être une plaisanterie, « 99% d'avocats donne au repos une réputation mauvaise. » Après l'audition que l'avocat, il est facile de comprendre la prolifération des plaisanteries d'avocat. Cet avocat n'est pas l'un de 1% !
L'obturateur I pour penser qu'un jeune homme noir en état physique superbe aurait été tiré à la mort par les dirigeants de police - je suis sûr de lui !
Les scandales assurent la présidence de Bush
La présidence de Bush est consommée par des scandales impliquant la conduite la plus élevée dans la partie républicaine et ceux les plus proches du président. Et, ces scandales sont seulement ceux qui ont été faits à public. Je parierais qu'il y a d'autres qui n'ont pas été encore exposés. Le chef de député White House de la mèche de Karl de personnel est à la tête de la liste de personnalités incertaines près du président.
Le mauvais comportement ainsi près de la Maison Blanche me rend plus soupçonneux des décisions qui ont été prises pour aller faire la guerreen Irak et s'attriste me de la perte des vies de nos jeunes membres militairesen Irak eten Afghanistan. Misbehavior n'est habituellement pas un événement jetable ; est étant attrapé. Les scandales ressemblent à un modèle à moi.
- Le président met en scène les soldats photo-op
Le Commander-in-Chief établit un photo-op avec les soldats cueillis à la main préparés avec des questions qu'elles pourraient être demandées. Le poteau de Washington rapporté en édition d'aujourd'hui que les soldats ont été préparés avant d'aller sur l'émission de phase. Le whiz de Gee, a laissé les soldats faire quels soldats font mieux et ne les gênent pas avec de fausses conférences de presse.
Je ne m'inquiète pas ce que les soldats disent, la guerre va mal et nos jeunes hommes et femmes doivent revenir à la maison. Nous devons faire celui qu'il prenne pour leur rapporter à la maison. Un plus de soldat tué ou mutilé est un trop grand nombre. Bush indique, « nous avons obtenu une stratégie, et c'est une stratégie claire. » À mon avis, il a tort, nous n'avons pas une stratégie claire et si vous n'avez pas une stratégie claire, vous n'avez pas une stratégie.
Il y a une vieille énonciation dans les militaires, « quand vous vous trouvez se creuser dans un trou, cessent de creuser. » L'Amérique doit « cesser de creuser le trou »en Irak; et, en Afghanistan, aussi.
J'ai été encouragé par une chose, et c'est qu'aucun Américain noir n'a été choisi participer à la charade.
- Les millions de plus commémoration de mouvement tenue demain
Les millions de plus mouvement, marquant le 10ème anniversaire de million d'homme mars, recueilleront à Washington, C.C demain (samedi 15 octobre 2005) commençant chez 5:30 heure du matin et finissant l'après-midi avec une adresse par Minister Louis Farrakhan et d'autres chefs. Je suis sûr qu'on lui montrera sur la C-Envergure.
2. LETTRE DU DIONISIO MAZUZE DE RÉVÉREND DE LA DIX-HUITIÈME ZONE ÉPISCOPALE :
Mon frère et soeurs en Christ
Nous sommes si reconnaissants à Dieu qui nous a donné l'occasion simple de rencontrer et connaître les personnes merveilleuses et aimables comme toi.
Notre famille est des revêtements essayant des périodes. Nous avons éprouvé avoir un papa affectueux en quelques nos vies et sa mort a rendu nos coeurs tristes. Nous avons éprouvé tant de douleur profonde parce qu'exactement le jour que mon père a passé loin, nous avons perdu mon oncle, le seul membre vivant de la famille de ma mère 30 jours avant la mort de notre père. Il n'était pas facile pour moi voient ma mère s'affliger tellement peu après avoir perdu son oncle.
Mais, en tout ceci que nous remercions Dieu He nous a soulagés et a envoyé ses personnes pour nous inciter à comprendre, « … à chaque chose il y a une saison, et un temps à chaque but sous le ciel (Eccles. 3:1). Nous remercions Dieu du peuple qui a prêché et avons parlé des mots de confort et pour ceux qui ont prié avec nous, et pour nous.
Oui, le papa est allé. Nous félicitons Dieu parce que maintenant nous comprenons que notre papa était un homme avec la mission et sa vie ici n'était pas en vain. Il y a environ 2005 ans de Dieu a donné une mission à Joseph, dont la mission était d'être un père terrestre pour notre seigneur et sauveur, Jésus, et pour lui enseigner des valeurs ; pour l'enseigner à respecter d'autres. Ainsi, il était avec mon père, Dieu a placé mon père en ce monde pour faire quelque chose, et il. Dieu a voulu que mon père préparât, donne un nom, un héritage, une histoire à cinq garçons et deux filles. Dieu lui a donné une mission très importante pour me disposer à être un pasteur (alléluia), et préparer ses enfants a commis des administrateurs. Dieu a envoyé mon père pour nous enseigner l'honnêteté, l'intégrité et les bonnes manières de vivre et d'aimer l'humanité.
Et, je suis sûr que Dieu a compris que mon papa a accompli sa mission par la confirmation à la dernière conférence annuelle. Je suis un aîné et un Dieu ambulants appelés le mon père à reposer.
Nous remercions l'inverseur Rosa Chilaule, Machaieie plus ancien de présidence, frère Patmossi Macamo, l'inverseur Pedro Muhate et Jaime Muhate pour leur présence. Glorifiez-vous soit à Dieu pour évêque Sarah Davis pour inviter la 18ème zone épiscopale pour prier pour nous. Nos mercis également au Dr. CalvinH. Sydnor III, l'inverseur Salomon Nxumalo, Bro de révérend. Dan Leeba de 17ème zone épiscopale), Mlle. Sherell Crawford et d'autres pour leurs messages et prières de soulagement.
Notre famille voudrait également remercier tout le toi, particulièrement merveilleusement aux personnes de Distrito de Maputo et de Vasco plus ancien de présidence Tui d'envoyer des personnes au confort et nous aider.
Dieu de mai bénissent tout le toi,

« Quoi que votre en travers »Quoi que votre croix,Quoi que votre douleur,Il y aura toujours de soleilAprès la pluie.Peut-être vous pouvez trébucher,Peut-être même chute,Mais Dieu toujours prêtPour répondre à votre appel.Il sait chaque chagrin d'amour,Voit chaque larme,Un mot de ses lèvresPeut calmer chaque crainte.Vos douleurs peuvent s'attarderTout au long de la nuit,Mais disparaissez soudainementÀ la première lumière de l'aube.Le sauveur attendQuelque part en haut,Pour te donner sa graceEt envoyez-toi son amour.Quoi que votre croix,Quoi que votre douleur,Dieu envoie toujours des arcs-en-cielAprès la pluie.

1. COMENTÁRIOS DO EDITORIAL:
- As polícias de Nova Orleães devem ter um blush do shame
Esta semana projetou imagens dos meios de um outro homem preto que está sendo batido pelos oficiais de polícias brancos. Diga-me, por que seja-o ele, oficiais de polícias sempre brancos que batem um homem preto? Eu não posso recordar ver imagens dos oficiais de polícias brancos ou pretos que batem um homem branco. Há algo erradamente com este retrato; dos homens pretos que estão sendo batidos pelos oficiais de polícias brancos e raramente, se sempre, pelas imagens de um homem branco que está sendo batido pelos oficiais de polícias brancos ou pretos; é racism.
Aquelas polícias de Nova Orleães devem ter um blush do shame porque fêz exame de dois oficiais de polícias novo-olhando para conter um schoolteacher aposentado preto de 64 year-old. Wow!
Aqueles oficiais de polícias devem ser ateados fogo, não somente para o que fizeram ao schoolteacher aposentado Robert Davis mas também porque não estão obviamente em nenhum tipo da forma física. Eram fisicamente e mentalmente unqualified. Eram wrestling e esforçar-se com o Davis e mim poderia ouvir seu respirar pesado enquanto eu prestei atenção às imagens na televisão e mesmo quando eu li clientes no jornal. Eu era fora da respiração para eles. Se eu fosse aqueles oficiais de polícias e seus supervisores, eu teria, pelo menos “um blush do shame” para o dishonor que trouxeram no departamento das polícias de Nova Orleães. Suas ações são também indicative de uma falta de treinar das polícias. Se eu fosse qualquer um um dos oficiais de polícias, eu seria ashamed de que fêz exame dois de nós, suportado - acima por um oficial de polícias em um cavalo, para subdue um aposentado de 64 year-old. Perderam suas direitas bragging.
E, o advogado para os oficiais de polícias e sua defesa illogic chamou a minha mente a indicação que eu me ouvi que que é suponha para ser um gracejo, “99% dos advogados dá ao descanso um nome mau.” Após o hearing que o advogado, ele é fácil de compreender o proliferation de gracejos do advogado. Esse advogado não é um de 1%!
O obturador I para pensar de que um homem preto novo em condições físicas superb estaria disparado à morte pelos oficiais de polícias - mim é certo dele!
Os Scandals estão fazendo exame sobre o Presidency de Bush
O presidency de Bush está sendo consumido pelos scandals que envolvem a liderança a mais elevada no partido republicano e por aqueles os mais próximos ao presidente. E, aqueles scandals são somente esses que foram feitos a público. Eu apostaria que há outro que não foi exposto ainda. O chefe dos empregados do deputado Branco Casa o Rove de Karl dirige a lista de personalidades questionáveis perto do presidente.
O comportamento mau assim que perto da casa branca faz-me mais suspicious das decisões que foram feitas para ir guerrear em Iraq e entristece-me da perda de vidas de nossos membros militares novos em Iraq e em Afeganistão. Misbehavior não é geralmente um evento one-time; está sendo sendo travado. Os scandals olham como um teste padrão a mim.
- O presidente encena os soldados foto-op
O comandante-chefe ajusta acima um foto-op com os soldados handpicked preparados com perguntas que pôde ser pedido. O borne de Washington relatou na edição de hoje que os soldados rehearsed antes de ir na transmissão viva. O whiz de Gee, deixou os soldados fazer que soldados fazem melhor e não hinder os com conferências de imprensa phony.
Eu não me importo o que os soldados dizem, a guerra estou indo mal e nossos homens novos e mulheres necessitam voltar para casa. Nós necessitamos fazer o que quer que faz exame para lhe trazer para trás para casa. Um mais soldado matado ou maimed é demasiado. Bush diz, “nós começamos uma estratégia, e é uma estratégia desobstruída.” Em minha opinião, é errado, nós não temos uma estratégia desobstruída e se você não tiver uma estratégia desobstruída, você não tem uma estratégia.
Há um provérbio velho nas forças armadas, “quando você se encontra yourself se escavar yourself em um furo, para de escavar.” América necessita “parar de escavar o furo” em Iraq; e, em Afeganistão, demasiado.
Eu fui incentivado por uma coisa, e aquela é que nenhum americano preto estêve selecionado participar no charade.
- Os milhões mais Commemoration do movimento prendido amanhã
Os milhões mais movimento, marcando o 10o anniversary dos milhão homens março, recolherão em Washington, C.C. amanhã (sábado, outubro 15, 2005) começando em 5:30 A.m. e terminando na tarde com um endereço por Ministro Louis Farrakhan e outros líderes. Eu sou certo que se mostrará na C-Extensão.
2. LETRA DO DIONISIO MAZUZE DE REVEREND DO DÉCIMO OITAVO DISTRITO EPISCOPAL:
Meus irmão e irmãs em Christ
Nós somos assim thankful ao deus que nos deu a única oportunidade de se encontrar com e conhecer povos maravilhosos e lovable como você.
Nossa família é revestimentos que tentam épocas. Nós experimentamos ter um dad loving em nossas vidas e sua morte fêz nossos corações sad. Nós experimentamos tal dor profunda porque exatamente no dia que meu pai passou afastado, nós perdemos meu tio, único membro vivo da família da minha mãe 30 dias antes da morte do nosso pai. Não era fácil para mim vê minha mãe afligir-se assim logo após ter perdido seu tio.
Mas, no todo o isto que nós agradecemos o deus para ele comforted nos e emitiu seus povos para fazer-nos compreender, “… a cada coisa há uma estação, e um momento a cada finalidade sob o heaven (Eccles. 3:1). Nós agradecemos o deus para os povos que preached e falamos palavras do conforto e para aqueles que prayed com nós, e para nós.
Sim, o dad é ido. Nós elogiamos o deus porque agora nós compreendemos que nosso dad era um homem com missão e sua vida aqui não estava em vão. Aproximadamente 2005 anos há de deus deu uma missão a Joseph, cuja missão era ser um pai earthly para nossos senhor e Savior, Jesus, e lhe ensinar valores; para ensiná-lo respeitar outro. Assim, era com meu pai, o deus colocou meu pai neste mundo para fazer algo, e. O deus quis meu pai preparar-se, dá um nome, um heritage, um history a cinco meninos e duas meninas. O deus deu-lhe uma missão muito importante para preparar-me para ser um pastor (alleluia), e preparar suas crianças cometeu stewards. O deus emitiu meu pai para ensinar-nos o honesty, a integridade e as maneiras direitas viver e amar o humankind.
E, eu sou certo que o deus compreendeu que meu dad terminou sua missão com a confirmação na última conferência anual. Eu sou uma pessoa idosa e um deus Itinerant chamados meu pai a descansar.
Nós agradecemos o Rev. Rosa Chilaule, Machaieie mais velho Presiding, irmão Patmossi Macamo, o Rev. Pedro Muhate e Jaime Muhate para sua presença. Glory seja ao deus para o Bishop Sarah Davis para convidar o 18o distrito Episcopal para pray para nós. Nossos agradecimentos também ao Dr. Calvin H. Sydnor III de Reverend, o Rev. Salomon Nxumalo, Bro. Dan Leeba do 17o distrito Episcopal), senhorita. Sherell Crawford e outro para seus mensagens e prayers comforting.
Nossa família gostaria também de agradecê-lo maravilhosamente, especial aos povos de Distrito de Maputo e de Vasco mais velho Presiding Tui para emitir povos ao conforto e de ajudar-nos.

3. WOMEN TO CELEBRATE THE BLESSING OF GIVING BIRTH AT
WOMEN’S GENERAL ASSEMBLY 2005:
By Rev. Maxine L. Thomas
While media statistics indicate that domestic violence increases during pregnancy and also in high percentage results in the death of both mother and baby at the hand of her abuser, a Women’s Conference sponsored by “Sisters Keeping the Covenant” is set for Friday, November 18 thru Saturday, November 19, 2005 at the First District Plaza, 3801 Market Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which will highlight women carrying to full term and giving birth.
Titled, Women’s General Assembly 2005, “AND SHE SHALL BRING FORTH,” and using Luke 1:31 as a scriptural foundation, the conference will aid in the process of women identifying that which God has placed in them as God moves them to the place of giving birth to the vision, and further, how to nurture and care for that which is born of God for the edifying of the church and for the expansion of God’s glorious kingdom. Women’s General Assembly 2005 will provide a forum for all women, regardless of race, denominational affiliation, or economical status, for spiritual renewal, restoration, healing, and revival.
The Conference will open on Friday, November 18th at 7 P.M. with a “Water Breaking” Praise Shower which will feature “The Birth Day Choir,” the Daughters of Shabach Dance Ministry of Baltimore, MD, New Covenant Praise Band of Philadelphia, PA, and the Voices of Africa Choral Ensemble of Philadelphia.
A dynamic panel discussion entitled, Women in the Office—“Birthing in the Natural what is Born of the Spirit will highlight the events to be held on Saturday, November 19th. Also, “Breathtaking” workshop topics include, “Formed in Secret, Fashioned for His Service,” “How Can a Woman Cleanse Her Ways,” “Getting Through the Process to Get to the Promise,” “Push Until You Birth the Promise,” “Cut Those Cords and Take Up Your Cross,” “Out of Your Belly and Into a Blessing,” “After Birth, Then What,” “Drip Drop, Rain On Me,” God Saw Me Before I Saw Myself,” “If You Can Release the Baggage, God Will Enlarge Your Borders,” “Cradle Me, But Don’t Crowd My Space,” and “Past Due By Our Standard, But In Step With God’s Plan.”
Women’s General Assembly 2005 will also have available a Labor Room, where women will be able to PUSH (Pray Until Something Happens) with the assistance of a team of intercessory prayer warriors.
For your pampering needs, there will be available complimentary upper body massages, facial makeovers and much more on “All That’s Nice Avenue.” “Healthy Ever After Highway” will feature mini lectures on health and nutrition, breast health, and HIV awareness. Take care of your shopping needs at the beautifully decorated “Birth Day Wonder Land,” where you will find fabulous fashions at a fabulous price, exquisite black art for sale, and much more!
The culminating event of the conference will be a Birth Day Celebration, which will open with Birth Day Party Praise and ascend to full dilation, as Rev. Maxine L. Thomas, founder and Executive Director of Sisters Keeping the Covenant, and Assisting Director Rev. Dr. Henrietta Scott Fullard, will preach a dual message.
"Sisters Keeping the Covenant" is a healing and restorative ministry for all women and sets its aim at providing forums for biblical teaching, and life changing worship experiences through Women’s General Assemblies and other seminars and programs.
Rev. Maxine L. Thomas has coordinated Women’s Conferences for more than a decade and continues to channel her efforts and prayers into presenting forums where women will encounter the presence of God through Holy Ghost Bible preaching and teaching, as well as receive pampering, enjoy the fellowship and bond of sisterhood, and celebrate the unique and special gift of womanhood. Rev. Maxine is the Connectional Director of Ministries for Women under the Department of Church Growth and Development for the AME Church; the Editor of the First District Flame Newspaper; the Assistant Pastor of Morris Brown AME Church in Philadelphia, where her husband of 17 years is the dynamic pastor; a Christian author of devotional books for women; former radio talk show host; the founder, producer and host of Adonai Christian Talk Show; a Christian columnist for various publication; a loving and devoted wife; and the mother of three brilliant and beautiful daughters, Tricia, Traci, and Trina.
Rev. Dr. Fullard is currently the visionary Presiding Elder of the Jamaica Long Island District of the African Methodist Episcopal Church and is the distinguished first woman Presiding Elder of the Philadelphia District where she served prior to being assigned to her current district. Dr. Fullard is a former educator and high school principal in the New York School System and she is currently the Campus Minister of York College in NY, NY serving a community of over 5,000 scholars. She is the former pastor of Bethel AME Church in Arverne, NY where her inspired efforts saved the church from closing and where she instituted a feeding program that serviced hundreds throughout the week in the Arverne community. She is a member of many religious and civic boards and is the President of the South Queens Clergy Alliance. Her efforts in kingdom building continue to unfold as she continues to avail herself to serving the needs of her presiding elder district, the need for providing substantive ministry that is revealed in spiritually based programs, and service oriented projects.
The conferences that Rev. Maxine have coordinated have been graced by the sound of the trumpet, the sweet melody of a harp, the voice of gospel recording artist, Valerie Boyd, the presence of Miss New Jersey who graced the conference with a guest appearance on “Beauty Boulevard,” and a panel of professional women in leadership who shared both the blessing and burden of their success. As God’s Spirit has moved, women have been slain under the power of the Holy Ghost, lifted in spiritual jubilation, and have stood still in God’s most holy presence.
The host church for Women’s General Assembly 2005 is Mt. Tabor AME Church in Philadelphia, PA where the Rev. Martha Lang is the esteemed and dedicated pastor. The presentation of this gathering is a combined effort of the pastors and churches of the various Philadelphia and New York Conferences of the AME Church, and a collaborative intervention of support rendered by women’s ministry workers of varied denominations throughout the east coast region.

Richburg preached with power and deliverance coming from Romans 4:17-21. He spoke from the sermon title “From Dead End to Deliverance”, reminding us that we have to learn to wait on the lord.
Whereas, we were blessed to witness and participate in the ordination of Rev. Moses Rembert.
Whereas, we witnessed the Church School presentation on the subject “A Lame Man Healed”, found in the scriptures in Acts chapter 3, verses 1-16. Reverends Eric Dent, Robert L.

Whereas, we have witnessed the Closing Worship Service of the Columbia Annual Conference, and have bathed our spirits in the music of the Emmanuel AME Church Choir, and we have heard the preaching of the Rev. Dr. Daniel Jacobs, who preached to our souls, spirits and circumstances, from the Biblical text found in Corinthians 5:17-20, from the subject, “We are Ambassadors for Christ”.
Through these events, we have celebrated the salvation of Jesus Christ, experienced the substance of Jesus Christ and therefore, we look forward to the start of a new conference year, and the challenges of the great opportunity to bring more souls into the kingdom, and give service to the community and the world at large.
Whereas, we the members of the Columbia Annual Conference give words of thanks, gratitude, admiration, appreciation and encouragement to the Emmanuel church family, including the host pastor - the Reverend Timothy Cokely, Mrs. Cokely and the staff and volunteers of this pristine and apt church family for their hospitality, their patience and indulgence to assure that we were comfortable, well fed, well served and at home for this week of conference activities.
Whereas, we acknowledge the insight and innovation of our leader and reverent father in God, the Right Reverend Preston Warren Williams II, and our spiritual mother and nurturer, Sister Wilma Webb-Williams, and therefore we offer our thanks to them. And we offer our service to the church by way of their leadership and resolve that this 128th session of the Columbia Annual Conference holds the light high for all of African Methodism to see, and for all of the kingdom of God to note, that through Christ, we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength and able bodies to do his work.
Be it resolved, that the spirit of Jesus - the Christ - has preserved us for his best that is yet to come, and this conference has given us the appropriate launching place for ministry and service for another year.
We therefore, request the members of this conference to rise as one in affirmation of our hosts, our conference leaders and our Episcopal leadership and clap our hands in praise for what God has done with us, to us and through us - this week, as an act of faith for the future of our Zion and all of our members to be proud members of the kingdom of God through the African Methodist Episcopal Church.

8. WISDOM OF MAYA ANGELOU:
* I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.
* I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.
* I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.
* I've learned that "making a living" is not the same thing as "making a life."
* I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.
* I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back.
* I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.
* I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.
* I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.
* I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.
* I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

While media statistics indicate that domestic violence increases during pregnancy and also in high percentage results in the death of both mother and baby at the hand of her abuser, a Women’s Conference sponsored by “Sisters Keeping the Covenant” is set for Friday, November 18 thru Saturday, November 19, 2005 at the First District Plaza, 3801 Market Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which will highlight women carrying to full term and giving birth.
Titled, Women’s General Assembly 2005, “AND SHE SHALL BRING FORTH,” and using Luke 1:31 as a scriptural foundation, the conference will aid in the process of women identifying that which God has placed in them as God moves them to the place of giving birth to the vision, and further, how to nurture and care for that which is born of God for the edifying of the church and for the expansion of God’s glorious kingdom. Women’s General Assembly 2005 will provide a forum for all women, regardless of race, denominational affiliation, or economical status, for spiritual renewal, restoration, healing, and revival.
The Conference will open on Friday, November 18th at 7 P.M. with a “Water Breaking” Praise Shower which will feature “The Birth Day Choir,” the Daughters of Shabach Dance Ministry of Baltimore, MD, New Covenant Praise Band of Philadelphia, PA, and the Voices of Africa Choral Ensemble of Philadelphia.
A dynamic panel discussion entitled, Women in the Office—“Birthing in the Natural what is Born of the Spirit will highlight the events to be held on Saturday, November 19th. Also, “Breathtaking” workshop topics include, “Formed in Secret, Fashioned for His Service,” “How Can a Woman Cleanse Her Ways,” “Getting Through the Process to Get to the Promise,” “Push Until You Birth the Promise,” “Cut Those Cords and Take Up Your Cross,” “Out of Your Belly and Into a Blessing,” “After Birth, Then What,” “Drip Drop, Rain On Me,” God Saw Me Before I Saw Myself,” “If You Can Release the Baggage, God Will Enlarge Your Borders,” “Cradle Me, But Don’t Crowd My Space,” and “Past Due By Our Standard, But In Step With God’s Plan.”
Women’s General Assembly 2005 will also have available a Labor Room, where women will be able to PUSH (Pray Until Something Happens) with the assistance of a team of intercessory prayer warriors.
For your pampering needs, there will be available complimentary upper body massages, facial makeovers and much more on “All That’s Nice Avenue.” “Healthy Ever After Highway” will feature mini lectures on health and nutrition, breast health, and HIV awareness. Take care of your shopping needs at the beautifully decorated “Birth Day Wonder Land,” where you will find fabulous fashions at a fabulous price, exquisite black art for sale, and much more!
The culminating event of the conference will be a Birth Day Celebration, which will open with Birth Day Party Praise and ascend to full dilation, as Rev. Maxine L. Thomas, founder and Executive Director of Sisters Keeping the Covenant, and Assisting Director Rev. Dr. Henrietta Scott Fullard, will preach a dual message.
"Sisters Keeping the Covenant" is a healing and restorative ministry for all women and sets its aim at providing forums for biblical teaching, and life changing worship experiences through Women’s General Assemblies and other seminars and programs.
Rev. Maxine L. Thomas has coordinated Women’s Conferences for more than a decade and continues to channel her efforts and prayers into presenting forums where women will encounter the presence of God through Holy Ghost Bible preaching and teaching, as well as receive pampering, enjoy the fellowship and bond of sisterhood, and celebrate the unique and special gift of womanhood. Rev. Maxine is the Connectional Director of Ministries for Women under the Department of Church Growth and Development for the AME Church; the Editor of the First District Flame Newspaper; the Assistant Pastor of Morris Brown AME Church in Philadelphia, where her husband of 17 years is the dynamic pastor; a Christian author of devotional books for women; former radio talk show host; the founder, producer and host of Adonai Christian Talk Show; a Christian columnist for various publication; a loving and devoted wife; and the mother of three brilliant and beautiful daughters, Tricia, Traci, and Trina.
Rev. Dr. Fullard is currently the visionary Presiding Elder of the Jamaica Long Island District of the African Methodist Episcopal Church and is the distinguished first woman Presiding Elder of the Philadelphia District where she served prior to being assigned to her current district. Dr. Fullard is a former educator and high school principal in the New York School System and she is currently the Campus Minister of York College in NY, NY serving a community of over 5,000 scholars. She is the former pastor of Bethel AME Church in Arverne, NY where her inspired efforts saved the church from closing and where she instituted a feeding program that serviced hundreds throughout the week in the Arverne community. She is a member of many religious and civic boards and is the President of the South Queens Clergy Alliance. Her efforts in kingdom building continue to unfold as she continues to avail herself to serving the needs of her presiding elder district, the need for providing substantive ministry that is revealed in spiritually based programs, and service oriented projects.
The conferences that Rev. Maxine have coordinated have been graced by the sound of the trumpet, the sweet melody of a harp, the voice of gospel recording artist, Valerie Boyd, the presence of Miss New Jersey who graced the conference with a guest appearance on “Beauty Boulevard,” and a panel of professional women in leadership who shared both the blessing and burden of their success. As God’s Spirit has moved, women have been slain under the power of the Holy Ghost, lifted in spiritual jubilation, and have stood still in God’s most holy presence.
The host church for Women’s General Assembly 2005 is Mt. Tabor AME Church in Philadelphia, PA where the Rev. Martha Lang is the esteemed and dedicated pastor. The presentation of this gathering is a combined effort of the pastors and churches of the various Philadelphia and New York Conferences of the AME Church, and a collaborative intervention of support rendered by women’s ministry workers of varied denominations throughout the east coast region.

Whereas, we were blessed to witness and participate in the ordination of Rev. Moses Rembert.
Whereas, we witnessed the Church School presentation on the subject “A Lame Man Healed”, found in the scriptures in Acts chapter 3, verses 1-16. Reverends Eric Dent, Robert L. China, Stephen Singleton and Larie Weeks presented and taught the relevant lesson on healing, miracles and the fruit of the spirit.

Whereas, we have witnessed the Closing Worship Service of the Columbia Annual Conference, and have bathed our spirits in the music of the Emmanuel AME Church Choir, and we have heard the preaching of the Rev. Dr. Daniel Jacobs, who preached to our souls, spirits and circumstances, from the Biblical text found in Corinthians 5:17-20, from the subject, “We are Ambassadors for Christ”.
Through these events, we have celebrated the salvation of Jesus Christ, experienced the substance of Jesus Christ and therefore, we look forward to the start of a new conference year, and the challenges of the great opportunity to bring more souls into the kingdom, and give service to the community and the world at large.
Whereas, we the members of the Columbia Annual Conference give words of thanks, gratitude, admiration, appreciation and encouragement to the Emmanuel church family, including the host pastor - the Reverend Timothy Cokely, Mrs. Cokely and the staff and volunteers of this pristine and apt church family for their hospitality, their patience and indulgence to assure that we were comfortable, well fed, well served and at home for this week of conference activities.
Whereas, we acknowledge the insight and innovation of our leader and reverent father in God, the Right Reverend Preston Warren Williams II, and our spiritual mother and nurturer, Sister Wilma Webb-Williams, and therefore we offer our thanks to them. And we offer our service to the church by way of their leadership and resolve that this 128th session of the Columbia Annual Conference holds the light high for all of African Methodism to see, and for all of the kingdom of God to note, that through Christ, we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength and able bodies to do his work.
Be it resolved, that the spirit of Jesus - the Christ - has preserved us for his best that is yet to come, and this conference has given us the appropriate launching place for ministry and service for another year.
We therefore, request the members of this conference to rise as one in affirmation of our hosts, our conference leaders and our Episcopal leadership and clap our hands in praise for what God has done with us, to us and through us - this week, as an act of faith for the future of our Zion and all of our members to be proud members of the kingdom of God through the African Methodist Episcopal Church.

8. WISDOM OF MAYA ANGELOU:
* I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.
* I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.
* I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.
* I've learned that "making a living" is not the same thing as "making a life."
* I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.
* I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back.
* I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.
* I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.
* I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.
* I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.
* I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
