“It is important for our community to accept that ‘WE,’ the residence of Duquesne, hold a degree of accountability for our community substandard conditions.  Therefore, it is ‘US’ who share the responsibility in recreating it!  With the help and support of the residence and community organizations we will effectively reclaim our community.  Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain. (1 Corinthians 15:58),”  the group said in a press release.
