Blackish: An Honest Conversation About the African-American Family
On the last day of Vacation Bible School 2017, we reflected on our theme “Super God! Super Me! Super Possibility!”, and the different lessons we learned throughout the week. During our discussion, one of our senior members spoke passionately about issues that impact our community and our lack of response in dealing with them. We talked about parenting, children feeling entitled, income inequality and crime in our community. The conversation included young adult and senior voices. It was eye opening and we felt it was just the beginning of a necessary dialogue.
Therefore, our 9th Annual Holistic Hurt, Wholistic Healing Conference will focus on issues impacting the African American family. On Friday night, we have planned a creative way to get the conversation started. On Saturday, we’ll have a panel discussion and workshops. On Sunday morning, a guest preacher will bring it all together.
You are invited to this FREE conference which will take place October 13-15, 2017. We are calling all pastors, ministers, deacons, and church members to join us for an important conversation and call to action as we talk about several taboo topics that impact the Black community. Feel free to invite your family members, coworkers, and neighbors. All we ask is that you please register so that we can be sure that we have adequate food and materials for all attendees.
