Join us during February as we celebrate Black History Month! Amplifying the voices of our Black brothers and sisters is a step toward the Kingdom vision of racial and ethnic diversity in Revelation 7:9. Together, let’s journey toward experiencing the beauty of God’s desire for diversity among his people.

A Prayer for Black History Month
O God, who created all peoples in your image: We thank you for the diversity of races and cultures in this world. Show us your presence in our Black brothers and sisters, and enrich our lives with their fellowship, until our knowledge of your love is made perfect in our love for all your children; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
