Black History Month Service

Fri, 30 October 2020 19:00 – 20:30 GMT

Black History Month has been observed since 1987 and it aims to celebrate people and events in the history of people of African and Caribbean descent.

As an Intercultural Worship Community, we want to celebrate and commemorate the black voices, stories and people that fought for racial justice and made an impact to our British and global society. We want to lament and remember the black voices and stories which were overlooked and marginalised and we want to encourage positive awareness about Black History.

We will be hosting an exciting service specifically for Black History Month. We will have reflections, quizzes, poems, spoken words (and lots more!). We will also have a guest speaker sharing a powerful reflection so you don’t want to miss this!

We hope to see you there 🙂

There will be no singing, no food and / or beverages will be provided and there will be a 2 metre social distancing seating arrangement. We may take photographs or video footage during this service.
