💜 September is National Su***de Prevention Month 💜

At Dexter Avenue, we believe every life has value, every person is seen, and no one should have to face their struggles alone.

This month, let’s be intentional about checking on our family, friends, neighbors, and community. A simple “How are you really doing?” can open the door to a conversation that someone may desperately need.

Let’s remind one another: You are loved. You are seen. You matter. Your story is not over. 💜

Be the person who checks in. Be willing to listen. Be a source of hope.

If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.

God is intentional about who He places in our lives to guide, teach, and nurture us. Trust His provision, trust His timing, and trust the shepherds He sends your way. 🤎✨

“Then I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.” Jeremiah 3:15

A visit can leave an impact long after you return home.

In February 2026, 21 members of First Presbyterian Church of Asheville, NC, visited Montgomery, including Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church and Parsonage, the Legacy Museum, and other significant civil rights sites.

Their visit was more than a history lesson—it was a reminder of the responsibility we all share to remember, to learn, and to continue the work of racial justice and civil rights.

One visitor shared:

“The most meaningful thing was being reminded that the history I remember was real, and we need to be careful not to go backwards but dedicated in going forward.”

At Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church and Parsonage, the history of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. continues to inspire visitors from across the country to remember the past, remain engaged in the present, and help shape a more just future.

As we start this new week, remember Psalm 27:1:

“The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear?”

Walk into this week with faith, courage, and confidence. Whatever comes your way, remember that God is with you. 🙏🏽✨

Have a blessed and productive week!

Even in the moments when you can’t see it, God is working. What feels like sorrow today can become the testimony you celebrate tomorrow. 🤍

“Your sorrow will turn into joy.” — John 16:20

Don’t give up. This is not the end of your story. ✨

Happy Sunday! 🤍✨

This week’s verse:

“Those who plant in tears will harvest with shouts of joy.”
— Psalm 126:5 NLT

Whatever you’ve been praying for, working toward, or crying through, don’t stop planting. God sees the tears, the sacrifices, the waiting, and the faith it takes to keep going. Your current season is not the end of your story. 🌱

May this week bring you joy for every tear you’ve sown. 💛🙏🏽

Have a blessed Sunday!

Some days, the best thing you can do is stop worrying about tomorrow and trust God with today. 🤍

Take it one day at a time. What’s meant for you will meet you in God’s timing. 🙏🏾✨

“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow…” — Matthew 6:34
