  [All day event] FRATERNITY is putting your life on the line for your brother
Description:
"The greatest love a person can have for his friends is to g ive his life for them." ~ John 15:13

Reverend Benny Newton was w atching the news when rioting erupted in Los Angeles following the acquitta l of the policemen involved in the Rodney King beating.

He rushed to the rioting scene, arriving just after an angry mob had pulled Fidel Lope z from his truck, stripped him, spray-painted him, and began beating him . Throwing himself across Lopez's body, he yelled, "If you kill him, you 'll have to kill me too." WHen the mob backed-off, Newton drove Lopez to a hospital, where the trucker received 58 stitches in his forehead. "He put his life in mine," Lopez said, "He saved me." ~ Mark Link, S.J.

Imagine you are Fidel Lopez. What are your thoughts before and after Newton intervened?

"You may forget the brother with whom you laughed, but you will never forget the brother with whom you cried." ~ adapted f rom an Arab Proverb
