Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Unity Prayer Breakfast
MLK Week will begin with the annual Unity Prayer Breakfast in Omaha, bringing the Creighton community together in a spirit of inclusion, reflection and fellowship. This year’s theme, “Power at its best,” is inspired by a quote from King’s 1967 book, Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community? “Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice. Justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.”
Josh Dotzler, BA’09 — author, coach and CEO of the Omaha nonprofit ABIDE — will deliver the keynote address. The University’s Drum Major Award and a student scholarship also will be presented. The program begins at 8:30 a.m. in the Ahmanson Ballroom at the Harper Center, with doors and a breakfast buffet opening at 8 a.m. Program begins at 8:30 a.m.
