“Each one, teach one” is an African proverb that encourages sharing knowledge and skills with others. It emphasizes that everyone has something to teach and that learning is a reciprocal process.
Dwight Jackson demonstrates the meaning of this proverb daily. For decades, as the proprietor of Richardson’s Mortuary of Miami, Florida, he has shared (taught) his skills as a licensed Embalmer and Funeral Director with many of the community. These lessons are far-reaching beyond simply learning a skill. Serving humankind at the most vulnerable time teaches empathy and compassion to anyone who must serve a family at this time.
"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime" The proverb suggests that teaching people how to do things for themselves is more worthwhile than doing those things for them repeatedly.
God is in the blessing business, and Dwight Jackson is definitely his foot soldier. Always providing opportunities for the youth of our communities, especially young men. So many have grown from boys to men with the guidance of Dwight Jackson. Dwight is known to support, beyond finances and the field. He is a father figure to many. A spiritually sound, gentle giant.
The Historic St. Agnes Episcopal Church is forever grateful for Dwight's advice and support. His thankfulness to God is evident in every expression of gratitude and worship that he shares with others. He worships at many churches and temples throughout his life's work, but he still calls St. Agnes a place of comfort, consolation - home.
“Thank you”, Dwight Jackson, for acknowledging and sharing God's love and care wherever you are.
“GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS”
Proverbs 22:1 – “A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches, loving favor rather than silver and gold.”
Dewey W. Knight, III
In his professional life, Dewey Knight is a selfless public servant, serving on many boards and committees throughout the State of Florida and receiving accolades from all of them. He is an effective voice and a champion for all people.
Jesus tells the parable of the Good Samaritan to answer the question, "Who is my neighbor? Your neighbor is anyone in need, regardless of their differences from you. This includes people of different ethnicities, religions, or socioeconomic statuses. Dewey W. Knight, III makes everyone feel as if they were his neighbor. In the community, his presence evokes feelings of trust, unity, and understanding without an ego. Dewey’s actions display the love of God.
The Historic St. Agnes Episcopal is beyond proud to have him worship with us, and grateful for his insurmountable support and genuine love. THANK YOU, DEWEY KNIGHT, III—WE LOVE YOU!!!
Several media outlets have begun Black History Month celebrations by recognizing the talents of Dr. Bestman and New Horizons' 50 years of impact in the community.
Matthew 25:25 is part of the Parable of the Talents, a story Jesus tells to illustrate the importance of using the gifts and opportunities God provides. The parable emphasizes the importance of being faithful and productive with the gifts and opportunities God provides. Dr. Evalina W. Bestman's life and work journey demonstrates great use of the talents entrusted to her by the master.
