His quiet but mighty conviction led to the restaurant adopting a policy to welcome all patrons the very next day. "You were all so denigrated, when you should have been celebrated," Steward said.

"You served your communities, and you served each other." He also touched upon the phenomenon of post-traumatic stress disorder, a very misunderstood condition at that time.

Sherman Andrus Grammy winning singer coming to Wa-Nee ELKHART COUNTY Two Wa-Nee area houses of worship will be welcoming a renowned gospel singer to their churches this coming weekend. Sherman Andrus will be featured in two local appearances on Sunday, April 8. He will be presenting a 10 a.m. performance at Wakarusa United Methodist Church, followed later that day at the Union Genter Church of the Brethren, where he will offer a concert at 6 p.m. Andrus has been sharing his music ministry since 1964, as a lead singer and founding member of Andrae Crouch and the Disciples. In 1972, he joined the legendary group The Imperials, not only offering his signature baritone sound, but breaking through the color barrier as well. During his time with the group, one of their recordings netted the singers a Grammy. In addition to touring with Andrus, Blackwood, and Company, Andrus also ministered in prisons through the Chuck Colson Prison Fellowship. Andrus was inducted into the Gospel Hall of Fame in 1998. A free will offering will be taken to support the Sherman Andrus Ministries. CDs will be available for purchase at Union Center COB as well, and the church will also provide refreshments. With over 50 years of gospel singing ministry, Andrus is sure to bring great music and inspiring testimony. Wakarusa United Methodist Church is located at 309 S. Elkhart St. in Wakarusa. Union Center Church of the Brethren is at the intersection of CR 11 and CR 50 northeast of Nappanee. Call Union Center COB at 574-773-4295, or Wakarusa United Methodist Church at 574-862-2863.
