Organizers said the gathering will feature powerful worship experiences to refresh the spirit, dynamic preaching and teaching to strengthen faith, and opportunities for fellowship and growth in ministry, leadership, and service. Both in-person attendance and virtual participation will be available. Rev.

He noted that civil rights leaders will also take part in the convention, “sharing with us and with our convention in reference to what is going on in America today; and talking about the setback; and how we as a people should prepare and be ready to fight the injustices that are happening within the Black and Brown community.”…
