Happy New Year to everyone. I have some exciting news to tell you. I started a new chat group. The castle is wonderful and full of information, freebies, recipes, advice, and prayers. But what it lacks is open communication between all of us. So I decided to open a chat group. For now it is small but it will grow. There is no moderation but you must subscribe in order to post. I am going to send each of you a personal invite to join the chat group. This way you will be able to know when the latest freebies and information will be available.

Martin Luther King, Jr. (January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968) was a famous leader of the American civil rights movement, a political activist, and a Baptist minister. In 1964, King became the youngest man to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize (for his work as a peacemaker, promoting nonviolence and equal treatment for different races). On April 4, 1968, Dr. King was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee. In 1977, he was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Jimmy Carter. In 1986, Martin Luther King Day was established as a United States holiday, only the fourth Federal holiday to honor an individual (the other three being in honor of Jesus of Nazareth, George Washington, and Christopher Columbus). In 2004, King was posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal. He was known as a great public speaker.^[1] Dr. King often called for personal responsibility in fostering world peace.^[2] King's most influential and well-known public address is the "I Have A Dream" speech, delivered on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C..
