Conference delegation takes part in AIDS Walk
July-August, 2002
> Comment on this article through our Discussion Forum Twenty-five people represented the Massachusetts Conference in the Boston AIDS Walk in June, raising over $5,000 for the AIDS Action Committee.
Some members of the group started the day by gathering near the MDC Hatch Shell for a brief worship service led by Wellesley College Chaplain Patricia Walton, a member of First Congregational Church in Milford. They then marched the 10-kilometer walk through Boston and Cambridge behind a Conference banner created by Katrina Clinton, pastor of the First Congregational Church in North Attleboro.
“We enjoyed the fellowship and new friendship which developed,” said Willie Sordillo, Administrative Assistant to the Minister and President and delegation organizer.
“We were proud to walk behind the beautiful banner which the Rev. Katrina Clinton made especially for this occasion, and proud to represent the Massachusetts Conference,” Sordillo said.
