In the year of 1970, the Reverend George W. Hampton, Sr., attended the first service at the Church on the Green on Elm and Temple Street. As he sat in the service near the Reverend Forsberg, he said to him, "I must go to my own church." He got up and left for Shiloh. As he entered the church, he went to the altar and the Spirit of the Lord said to him, "Have a service in your own church and invite all people, black, white and others to attend."
In June of 1970, the Spirit of the Lord moved upon him and said, "Have a March and call it the Love March in remembrance of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., because all people loved him. On January 15, 1971, we had our first service and love march.

Today the city of New Haven began the process of distributing at-home rapid tests to essential staff with symptoms or COVID exposures – including teachers and other school staff ahead of tomorrow’s return to the classroom. This will help ensure essential staff can safely return to work. This initial distribution is part of 10,000 tests the city obtained in recent days.
The city has also received 9,000 tests from the State of Connecticut. Distribution of those tests will begin tomorrow. This initial tranche of tests will be distributed to non-profit service providers who work with vulnerable communities – such as the elderly and those experiencing homelessness. A large portion of these tests will also be dedicated to New Haven Public School children with symptoms or COVID exposures. NHPS will share information directly with families in the near future on this.
While we do not yet have enough rapid tests to distribute widely to the public, we expect to receive additional tests from the state, at which time we will announce additional distributions.
If you need to get tested, Wren labs is re-opening their testing site on the New Haven Green tomorrow afternoon (3-6 PM) and will continue to operate the 60 Sargent Drive location each morning (8 AM – Noon) except for Fridays. No appointments are required, and there may be wait time.
As a reminder, get vaccinated, boosted and wear your masks.
Check out the City’s Covid website at https://covid19.newhavenct.gov/ or call: 203-946-6999 for more information.
Thanks everyone!
