ANGELS DANCE ALONG THE AVENUE


LENGTH: Short :   25 lines
ILLUSTRATION: PHOTO:      Members of the dance team from the Evangel 

Foursquare Church perform at the front of the third annual March for

Jesus on Saturday. Some 800 people marched, not to protest anything,

but to publicly display their belief in Jesus Christ. The marchers

sang in unison with songs played on Spirit FM (103.7), a local

Christian radio station. At right, Scott Harvey sings. The march was

held on the streets of the Lincoln Terrace apartments. After the

march, a rally was held in Washington Park. The March for Jesus

began in 1987, when Christian musician Graham Kendrick marched and

sang down the streets of London. The event reached the United States

in 1990 and is scheduled to continue until June 2000. color
