“Making A Way Out Of No Way"
Dr. Tracy Brown
11am, Sanctuary and Livestream on Facebook
Sometimes it feels like the world we live in is more committed to pain and hatred than love and harmony. In these times of political polarity and personal challenges, what can we learn from the Black community about tenacity and resilience? Let’s close out Black History Month with Dr. Tracy and her reminder that resilience is just the outer expression of our faith and spiritual strength.
