Each January, the Grand Canyon Synod gathers across Arizona and southern Nevada to honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. through worship, Gospel music, and community celebration. Our annual MLK events—hosted in both Phoenix and Las Vegas—lift up Dr. King’s vision of justice, peace, and beloved community through the Lutheran witness of hope and reconciliation.
This page serves as your home for all things MLK in the Grand Canyon Synod: upcoming event details, rehearsal schedules, signup links, and reflections on how faith moves us to work for justice in our time.
