“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”

That quote, from the legendary civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., is the theme for the upcoming MLK Day celebration being held by the Midland Women’s Civic Club. It is a virtual event being livestreamed at 1:00 PM on January 17 by the Lincoln Park Performing Arts center via their Facebook and YouTube pages.

Stephanie Pennington of the MWCC joined Matt Drzik to preview the event on the January 14 edition of A.M. Beaver County, which is underwritten by Lincoln Learning Solutions. Pennington spoke about the importance of the message being shared by all participants, along with the charitable donation drive being held in concurrence with the MLK Day event that are benefiting the Women’s Shelter of Beaver County and the Center Food Bank.
