March and Service Fair Held by Black Ministerial Alliance

The Black Ministerial Alliance of New Britain, with ALM’s Ministries International, held a 100 Man March, followed by a Health a Community Service Event on Main Street this weekend.

The event included a cookout, while different agencies and organizations provided services and information to people in need in the community.

Pastor Gervais Barger of Peace Missionary Ministries, Pastor André L. McGuire of ALM’s Ministries International and Pastor Dana Smith of New Life II Ministries led the march and community event.

Starting with a prayer, local activists marched from Main Street, to Elm Street, to Martin Luther King Drive, down North Street and back down Main Street.

Along the way, people waved and cheered, while marchers carried messages saying, “Jesus Loves You,” “March for Health”, “Jesus Saves,” and “100 Man March.”

The march ended at 90 Main Street, where the cookout and services fair was attended by dozens of local residents.
