JOSHUA 1:5 b-9 (NRSV)

5b As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will not fail you or forsake
you. 6 Be strong and courageous; for you shall put this people in possession
of the land that I swore to their ancestors to give them. 7 Only be strong and
very courageous, being careful to act in accordance with all the law that my
servant Moses commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the
left, so that you may be successful wherever you go. 8 This book of the law
shall not depart out of your mouth; you shall meditate on it day and night, so
that you may be careful to act in accordance with all that is written in it. For
then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall be successful. 9
I hereby command you: Be strong and courageous; do not be frightened or
dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go."

To Do Justice
By Rev. Reginald Williams Micah 6:8

In a day where racial profiling is rampant, it is important for us to know what can and cannot be
done if stopped by the police. Below, I will offer a few helpful hints that should guide us as we
go.

WHAT IF THE POLICE QUESTION YOU?

• You have the right to remain silent. This is a constitutional right. Even if police ask you
questions, you cannot be arrested for refusing to answer them. If you are stopped on the
street, you cannot be arrested for refusing to identify yourself. This would be akin to
Apartheid South Africa with the demand for pass books.
• You have the right to ask if you are free to go. If the police say that you are not free to go, but
you are not under arrest either, then you are being detained. While being detained, the
police may pat down the outside of your clothing, but you still do not have to answer
questions.
• You have the right to talk to an attorney before you answer any questions. If you do not have an
attorney, you may indicate to the officer that you want to speak to a lawyer before
answering questions. Public defenders are responsible for representing people who cannot
afford an attorney in the Cook County and the Federal systems.
• Remember, as much as is possible, stay calm, and do not bad mouth the police in any way, even
if you believe what is happening is unjust. Such actions may lead them to find reasons to
arrest you.

Please remember that not all police are bad, but some will pervert justice, and not follow the rules.
However, it is important that you be educated as to what they are supposed and not supposed to
do. Please tear this page out of the bulletin and share it with your children and loved ones.

STEWARDSHIP

The Results Of A Redeemed Life


I NEVER PLEDGE

“I never sign a pledge of any kind,” said a man whom I was soliciting. “Are you sure?” I
asked. “Yes,” he replied.

“Do you own your home?” I questioned. “Yes, but it is mortgaged for half its value.”

“Did you promise to pay interest on your mortgage?” “Yes.”

“When your telephone was installed, did you agree to pay monthly charges?” “Yes. What
are you driving at?”

“As a matter of fact,” I answered, “Have you not committed the larger portion of your
income to everything your home needs, except the church?”

“I surrender,” he said.
