歌迷FAZE的现场报道：就在SoCal的另一天.... 上午7点以后我去了洛杉矶First AME 教堂，这对我来说可真幸运，仅有15分钟的路程。我所得到的全部信息就是，Michael会来这儿做礼拜，但却不知道什么时候才来。大约是7:15左右我就到了那儿，手里拿着照相机。我站在附近，猜想着会不会有媒体出现。直到8点那趟的礼拜开始之前，仍仅仅只有一队拿着小型照相机的摄影师经过。所以我推断，Michael很可能是参加10点的礼拜。 8点以后，事态开始有所进展。媒体的敞篷车陆续到达，人们也开始察觉出 Michael 可能要来。我从一记者处得知，Michael 将在10点礼拜开始时真正到达，而且，他在做完礼拜之后会去附近的一所学校。不久，律师们也陆续到达，首先是 Thomas，接着是 Susan，最后是Brian，到达时，每个人都彬彬有礼，然后再由临近停车场的侧门进入教堂。（先翻译到这儿，明天还要上班，先睡啦...)

（续）9点之前，已经至少有五六辆媒体车停在教堂之外，我开始感到兴奋，在之前我就已经很兴奋了，想到 Michael 很快就要到来，我甚至变得有点神经质。9:15，一丛人纷至沓来，在他们之前的是一辆白色SUV，其后是 MJ 的 Bentley 和两辆黑色SUV。他们径直开往停车场，我却无法紧跟上去，真够郁闷，还不止于此，Bentley 停在楼梯后，这样一来，我就看不到 Michael 下车了，就在他也走进那扇侧门时，我才勉强看见了他的一只胳膊（还有袖标）。（水平有限，速度很慢，敬请谅解，待续）

谢谢SWJ其实还有些详细报道的，我是没时间翻译了MJFC Representative Reports From the First AME Church In Los Angeles Michael Jackson was a special guest of Rev. Cecil "Chip" Murray on Sunday, August 15, 2004 at the First African Methodist Episcopal Church in Los Angeles. One of the most respected churches in the Los Angeles African-American community, the 10:00 a.m. service was packed to capacity. Michael Jackson, his youngest brother Randy Jackson, entertainer Steve Harvey, and attorney Mr. Thomas Messerau sat comfortably towards the back of the church and enjoyed the service. Although news of Michael's appearance was not widely publicized, the press from most major news channels were on hand. Much of the public learned of Michael's appearance from hearing it mentioned on the Steve Harvey radio program earlier. There were a handful of fans who knew where First AME Church was located and were able to be there to greet Michael. After Michael left the church he made his way to a small school a block away that is run by First AME Church. There, he was scheduled to greet a class room full of about 25 African-American children. The press were told before Michael entered the room that there would be absolutely no questions that would be allowed by the press. Before Michael was ready to enter the room, Steve Harvey came in several times to speak and chat with the children. He joked with them and had everyone well at ease. Soon Michael's attorney entered the room followed by Michael, his brother Randy and Steve Harvey. There was a chair provided for Michael and he sat with Thomas Messareu standing to his right and Randy by his side, and Steve Harvey next to him. Randy spoke first and introduced himself and Michael. Randy asked the children if they knew why Michael was here today. He replied that Michael was here to see them. "This is for you," he said. He told the children that they could ask Michael any question they wanted to ask. One little girl quickly asked if she could visit Neverland. Michael replied, "You're welcome any time." All the kids shouted and clapped. They were all very happy to hear and see Michael. Michael also seemed very happy, and very much at peace. At this time, as more questions were about to be asked by the children, the press was asked to leave. The kids asked Michael various questions such as "How do you moonwalk," and "What is your favorite song," etc. Outside the school, the press were directed by Ramone Bain to wait for the opportunity to interview Michael's party when they were ready. A short while later, Mr. Messerau and Steve Harvey exited the building and met the press. Questions were asked first of Mr. Messerau as to why Michael went to church. Mr. Messerau replied that Michael is a spiritual person and that he has always had an interest in church. "Why THIS church?", one reporter asked. Messerau replied that "It is a beautiful church!" Mr. Messerau is well known for his support of the African American community in Los Angeles and is affiliated with First AME Church. The next questions were for Steve Harvey who was very direct when asked about what he thinks of Michael and the situations he faces. Mr. Harvey made it very clear that he is Michael's friend and that he believes completely in his innocence of the slanderous charges brought against him. Harvey spoke bluntly about forces including the media, "You guys", he said, that go out of their way to harm Michael. One reporter tried to corner Mr. Harvey by asking "Why was an "exclusive" about Michael's appearance leaked to an entertainment news channel", to which Raymone Bain replied and repeated several times, "That's not true." Steve Harvey added to that and chastised the reporter for that question. Very patiently Steve looked around and told the reporter, "I see all of these news channels here and nothing looks "exclusive" about it otherwise you would not be here." Steve pointed to this as an example of how the media slants and distorts information to fit their own agenda. Mr. Harvey pointed to Michael's fame, success, and money as the source of the aggressive allegations against him, and the attempts to destroy his career. Other questions about Steve Harvey's work followed and allowed the press to exit gracefully from what was clearly an unmasking of the motivations of some, if not many in the media. The guilt hung in the air. Moments after the press had disbanded, Michael and his brother emerged from another exit and made their way to their vehicles. Michael stopped along the way several times for photos and autographs with his fans. Many more fans were waiting outside the gates and shouted to Michael as he left. It was amazing to see fans, old and young, chase after Michael's limo in their best Sunday suits as he pulled away. While just a block from a freeway, Michael was back on the road, and on his way.

Jackson attends service, tours Sunday school 8/16/04 By DAWN HOBBS NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER Calls for justice rang out as Michael Jackson clapped and swayed to gospel music at a South Central Los Angeles church service he attended Sunday with the lawyers defending him on accusations of child molestation. Surrounded by defense lawyers Thomas Mesereau and Brian Oxman, who are members of the First AME Church, his brother Randy, comedian Steve Harvey and dozens of friends, Mr. Jackson watched with delight as babies were baptized and gratefully accepted the congregation's prayers. After enjoying the service at the First African Methodist Episcopalian Church where more than 60 choir members belted out songs of praise to the Lord, Mr. Jackson visited a Sunday school where children gathered at his feet, eager to ask questions. One young girl popped up, proclaimed she was a huge fan and asked if she could be invited to his Neverland Valley Ranch. "Of course -- all of you are invited to Neverland," Mr. Jackson told the children. The appearance Sunday came a day before Mr. Jackson planned to be in a Santa Maria courtroom to watch his lead lawyer, Mr. Mesereau, grill the prosecutor who wants him locked up for alleged child molestation. Mr. Jackson's family is expected to be there when Santa Barbara County District Attorney Tom Sneddon takes the stand today to answer questions about an alleged illegal raid. Sunday's appearance gave Mr. Jackson the opportunity to be seen in public before a friendly audience unlikely to question him about the child molestation case. A gag order has kept Mr. Jackson and his lawyers from telling their side of the story. Mr. Mesereau again declined comment Sunday, citing the gag order. It's not the first time Mr. Mesereau has brought a high-profile client to First AME. Actor Robert Blake, then out on bail after being charged with murder in the death of his wife, Bonnie Lee Bakley, also attended services there with the lawyer, who volunteers at the church's free legal clinic. At the church, the Rev. Cecil Murray honored Mr. Mesereau for his efforts in "making sure justice not be denied." He then introduced Mr. Jackson, who stood as Rev. Murray said: "May our prayers for you during your time of travail come to you . . . You shall be treated as a child of God." Hundreds in the packed church then stretched out their right arm with their palm turned up to send prayers to Mr. Jackson, as they do for other parishioners in need. Unlike fans and curiosity-seekers who swarm the pop star, the congregation allowed him to worship unimpeded. "What do we want here today?" the reverend asked. "We want justice, equity and healing." Dressed in a dark-blue velvet sports coat with a gold armband, dark pants with a red stripe down the side, a long-sleeved white shirt, black vest, a gold-and-red tie and black boots, Mr. Jackson listened attentively to the reverend's sermon about greed and the differences between being "carefree, careless and careful." Rev. Murray later told the News-Press: "Michael Jackson being in worship means to me personally that he continues to be the spiritual being that he was reared to be. Prior to going out to worship, Michael, Michael's brother Randy, Steve Harvey and I shared private prayers in the study. We felt the healing presence of our Lord and were free from that point to proceed to worship. "It goes without saying that the legitimate house of worship does not exalt any one person over another," he said. "All are precious in God's sight. I rejoice over any soul that surrenders in service to our Lord." Before the service, a few TV trucks lined the curb outside the church. Afterward, throngs of reporters, photographers and fans clogged the streets. Outside, parishioners Beverly Russell and Cynthia Vickers said they were surprised by Mr. Jackson's attendance. "We didn't know he was going to be there," Ms. Russell said. "He came on time and stayed for the whole service. It was most impressive. We just wish him well." As Mr. Jackson rode in his black Bentley from the church to the Sunday school, fans ran after him screaming -- hoping to catch a glimpse. Inside the school, one boy sat looking astonished after Mr. Jackson and his entourage walked by. "He's an amazing man," said Brandon Richie, 11. "He shook my hand." In response to their questions, children learned Mr. Jackson's favorite song is "We are the World," that he started singing when he was 5 and that moon walking doesn't hurt his toes. He then posed for a group picture with the children, Mr. Harvey, Mr. Mesereau and his brother Randy. Outside, Brandon said visiting with the entertainer was more exciting than he thought it would be: "It was incredible!"

（续）我不知是否也要去参加礼拜，即使是Michael在的话，那感觉很不自在，没有那种特殊信仰，再加上是在神圣的礼堂里，而你满脑子却都是坐在这间屋子里的某个人。我跟之前说过话的那位记者聊了聊，她说服我，因为那将会很有趣，于是我决定要进去，直到最后，她都是对的。我走了进去，在后面捡了个靠左的位置坐下，感觉不自在极了。就快10点时，Michael及其随行人员走了出来，坐在右边他们各自的座位上，于是礼拜开始了.... 我没想投入多少精力在做礼拜上。礼拜真的很好，我的心灵竟也被感动了。至于Michael，他似乎真正地陶醉在了这一切之中，别人站起来他也站起来，别人拍手他也拍手。在礼拜进行到一半时，Mez，Randy，Steve Harey（坐在Bentley车里，与Michael一起的那个人），简短美好地被介绍给在座的圣众们，圣众们反应良好，这看起来真不错。在礼拜就要结束前（礼拜历时1小时40分），Michael及其随行人员站起身穿过前面的一扇门离开。我随后赶紧离开，来到停车场等着Michael离开，停车场上早已聚集了很多媒体记者。（待续）

（续）于是他就与媒体、旁观者、保安、以及围在他车子附近的几个歌迷们周旋，终于把车开了出来。当他把车窗摇下来时，我捕捉到了他一张不错的照片，可当他车一开到街上时，我就被挤到了一边。我赶紧跑到人行道上追出去，当车将沿街开走时，我跑上前，挥动手里的History，坐在前方乘客席位置上的家伙问我要过去这个，我则连同一支银笔一并递给他，他把两样东西全部递给坐在后面的Michael。不多久，我就得到了我的签名！稍后，我仍追着车跑，Michael的车窗摇了下来，我便能握着他的手并告诉他：“我们爱你，Michael！”多么激动人心的一刻…… 他的汽车和SUV开去了一所离教堂几街区远的学校，在那儿，他们举行了一场记者招待会。在学校外面，人们也开始聚集，但没有一个能真正看到Michael，因为学校在后方某处，是看不到的。我们中的几个人被许可进入大门，认为可能会与Michael见面，可过了一会，他们告诉我们让我们出去。不管怎样，Michael的车队又出来了，Michael还透过他的车窗向人们致意，虽然比之前的简短了许多。我没能再握上Michael的手，但他看到我拿着我自己copy的They Don't Care About Us时，他微笑了。一开到街道上，他就加速离开了，丢下我们几个铁杆歌迷还在奋足疾追。追出了好长几个街区，我几乎累个半死，但没有一个人能追上他，直道他上了高速公路。不论如何，总而言之，非常激动的一天！ Go Michael!! Whooot!! （完）
