He is re fe rie d b y many as a man of a c tio n ;!a g re e . 1 sincerely believe that with the he I d and support of men of action such as Rev. Johnson we w ill be able to rebuild our community in the not too distant future. Noth ing Is impossible if we stand united and support efforts de signed to better our com m unity. We wish to commend M r . Jackson and other C lerg y who have achieved this needed pi oject and fo r the faith they have in th eir com m unity.
