THE ROAD to VICTORY
I thank God for the opportunity afforded me, my family, and my campaign staff to take part in the various conferences, conventions, meetings, events, and worship services across the Connectional Church. Listed here for your review are the details of my journey, both completed and projected, that depict my travels as I go forth to pursue my desire to become a Bishop in the African Methodist Episcopal Church. I count it a joy to have had the opportunity to meet many of you and invite you to seek me out whenever our paths chance to meet. Please consider me as your candidate and keep me and my family in your prayers as I will keep you in mine.
Yours in Christ,
Reverend Dr. Stafford J. Wicker
