From Montgomery we continued eastward through Tuskegee,
where we toured Tuskegee Institute (alas, no pictures!). We rolled
into Atlanta late that evening and headed straight for Central Ministries
United Methodist Church, where we spent the night. The next morning,
Sunday, we went to a rousing service at Central Ministries before touring
the Martin Luther King National Historic Site, the Center for Non-Violent
Social Change, and Sweet Auburn.
The next day, we planned to go to White Water Park,
an amusement park outside of Atlanta. But it was freezing cold!
Who has ever heard of it being 65 degrees and rainy in Atlanta in the middle
of July? So we spent the morning at the Coke Museum, hoping the clouds
would go away. Instead, it started raining harder! We weren't
going to let anything turn us around, though, so we went to the amusement
park anyway. And it was a blast!
Kelvin Leflore, Zalhedrin Stansberry, Anthony Perkins, Malcolm Barrow,
Tim Spivey, and even Mr. Myers got dressed up for a fantastic church service
with Central Ministries.
We visited Martin Luther King's grave site at the Center for Non-violent
Social Change.
