From the Black Star Project:
On Sunday, November 21, 2010, if your faith-based institution is not inviting, embracing and supporting young Black men, WHY NOT? You have plenty time to organize a successful “Take a Young Black Man to Worship Day.” Call Bruce at 773.285.9600 to register.
The Black Star Project’s Million Father Movement is partnering with the most dynamic force in the Black community–the Black church. Black churches, mosques, temples and synagogues across the country are working together on “Take a Black Male to Worship Day,” Sunday, November 21, 2010. Faith-based institutions throughout America are participating in this event.
We are especially asking fathers, grandfathers, foster fathers, stepfathers, uncles, cousins, big brothers, mentors, deacons, trustees, male choir members, significant male caregivers and family friends to join The Black Star Project in this movement. Women and men of all ethnicities are also encouraged to “Take a Black Male to Worship Day.” Please email blackstar1000@ameritech.netor call Bruce Walker at 773.285.9600 to bring this effort to your city, to receive a complete organizing kit or for guidance concerning this event. Participating faith-based institutions will be listed in our national directory.
If your faith institution is not participating, why not?
Please ask your faith leader to ensure that your faith-based institution participates in this event. If you wish to participate in or lead the effort in your city or in your congregation on Sunday, November 21, 2010, (or your day of worship near this date), please call Bruce Walker at 773.285.9600 for an organizing kit and to register or emailblackstar1000@ameritech.net.
