Kwanzaa Celebration

 


Breathe and be in God’s presence today.


Pray for Umoja – unity – the candle lit on Monday.  Commit your heart to God’s threads that connect us to each other and all creation.

Pray for Kujichagulia – self-determination – the candle lit on Tuesday.  Commit your mind to listen to voices too often silenced and your reading schedule to engage voices other than your own.  

Pray for Ujima – collective work – the candle lit on Wednesday.  Open your calendar for 2023 to sign up and show up for events where we can come together to seek the common good.

Today, light a candle for Ujamaa – Cooperative Economics – to build and maintain stores, shops and businesses owned/operated by African-Americans.  Let this candle guide you out into our community to support with your dollars. Then, take yourself out to eat at a restaurant owned and operated by African Americans.
