Speeches of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to be recited Feb. 4

Live re-enactment is very moving
January 28, 2018

The Episcopal Parish of All Saints' Church & St. George's Chapel invites the community to hear speeches of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. presented live during sermon time by renowned orator the Rev. Dr. John G. Moore Sr. at both the 8 and 10 a.m., Sunday, Feb. 4 services at All Saints' Church, 18 Olive Ave., Rehoboth Beach.

A military retiree and vice president of resource, development and strategic partnerships for the United Way of Delaware, Moore created "The Echoes of a Prophet" to help keep King's dream alive. For more than two decades, he has delivered his dramatic presentations to schools, colleges, youth correctional facilities and organizational gatherings throughout the country, as well as in Germany, Japan and South Korea.

In January and February alone, he averages between 30 and 40 speaking engagements.

During Moore's presentation, he recites completely from memory portions of some of King's most inspirational speeches, including "I Have a Dream," "The Drum Major Instinct" and "I've Been to the Mountaintop." He has precisely studied King's every voice inflection and intonation, and his live re-enactment is very moving. "The message of King is so powerful and still relevant today. He can inspire all races and all faiths," Moore said.
