Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day (MLK Day) is a very Important and a special day that we all celebrate. Every year it is the same routine.We get up and go to the parade. Now it is time to do something more with MLK Day. Perhaps take the celebration to a nursing home, a hospital or community park.

We can also open up our churches and feed the homeless or take the food to them. We could fellowship to encourage them to believe. We can do this to show thanks to Dr. King for all the marching he did for us. We will also be giving thanks to other people who fought for our equal
