#WomenforTurner are fired up and ready to win this November! I was grateful to be joined by over 100 Women for Turner members and many other community leaders at their rally this morning, including Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, Rep. Alma Allen, Rep. Ana Hernandez and County Attorney Vince Ryan.
As Congresswoman Shelia Jackson Lee said, "I need people who want to be a part of a mission -- not just a membership." #Turner2015 #HoustonCanBe
Tonight and tomorrow, Houston remembers the life of Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church First Lady Audrey Lawson. She was an advocate for education and for the arts. She was one of the biggest contributors in helping to build the Ensemble Theatre.
When we remember the life she has lived, the many hours she volunteered for the community, and her willingness to help our children achieve their dreams and have a brighter future. Though she is physically not present with us now, she will forever be spiritually with us. To God be the glory.
This picture is from the #WomenforTurner First Lady's luncheon at the Ensemble Theatre taken earlier in the year.
