For Juneteenth: A Time of Freedom, Reflection, and Faith
Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day, commemorates June 19, 1865 — the day enslaved people in Texas finally learned they were free, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation.
It’s a sacred moment in Black history — a celebration of liberation, resilience, and the ongoing journey toward justice. As we mark this day, we reflect on the faith that carried our ancestors, the power of community, and the God who walks with us through every trial and triumph.
