This past Thursday, April 9, 2026, was a truly glorious day at Morehouse College
@morehouse1867
We gathered to honor and celebrate the life, legacy, and retirement of The Reverend Dean
@lawrenceecartersr PhD, a professor, prophet, preacher, and pastor to thousands; a global spiritual father whose imprint spans generations. For over 47 years, he has faithfully served as the founding Dean of the Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel, shaping lives with wisdom, discipline, and grace. He also the one to lay hand and blessed
@sirzayden as a baby. 🫶🏽
I have the privilege of serving as Co-Chair of the Dean Lawrence Carter Sr. Chair Endowment Committee. If you feel led to support this enduring legacy, the link 🔗 is in the bio. 👆😉
The prophet of the hour was US Senator The Reverend Dr
@raphaelwarnock was both stirring and deeply fitting. Drawing on the image of Elijah with the bow and arrow, he spoke of a legacy that does not end with the prophet, but is carried forward through those who are sent—reminding us that Dean Carter’s life has been one of aim, release, and righteous trajectory.
I was also deeply encouraged to stand with two of my brother-friends,
@keithboykin and Bryan Bonaparte
@watchpsychology as they were inducted into the Collegium of Scholars, along with sister-friend
@berniceaking and to witness so many others honored for their extraordinary contributions. Shout out to the unintentional security detail pose
@quintien 🤣
And in a quiet, humbling moment—I saw my portrait, unveiled in October 2025, now hanging on the wall just beneath Bishop Mariann Budde, who was unveiled the same day. 🙏🏽
Moments like these remind us: legacy is not only about what we build, but what we bless forward. Thank you Dean!
