The Most Rev. Michael B Curry, who delivered a powerful sermon at the royal wedding of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, will be the keynote speaker at a fundraiser to benefit the Day1 media ministry in Atlanta this fall.
Curry, the presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church, invoked the words of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. during his sermon, which was watched by millions around the world.
While in Atlanta, Curry will also record a Day1 radio segment that will air on Nov. 25.
