BLACK HISTORY MONTH

Back in June of this year, members and friends of OneFaith Community Church, people of different ethnicities and backgrounds, came together to break bread and talk about Juneteenth. We shared our thoughts and frustrations around the way our society has dealt with race. We voiced our hope for change that the world so desperately needs. What followed was a read of the book How to Heal our Racial Divide, then a 4-part study led by the book’s author, Dr. Derwin L. Gray. We learned to recognize in scripture that God’s opportunity for redemption and salvation is meant for all people equally and what that means for our interactions with one another.
