A New Day


I want to give a shout out to The Cunninghams and Lisa Cunningham.

They're continuing on with a new church they just began in the Bronx.
It's called NEW DAY CHURCH and it's principles are threefold: connecting with god/spirit, crossing boundaries (of race, class, sexual orientation, age), and confronting injustice (in the community and beyond).

These folks are amazing. And they hosted me on one of The PCF trips to NYC.
And Lisa is one of my besties from Wesleyan.

If you have a chance stop by their monthly service.
This Sunday they're showing some recent footage from the PCF's travels.

And they are just all around great! So YES!

and here's another mantra: http://www.imeem.com/hiphopmusic2/music/gcDrGOOX/knaan_in_the_beginning/
wait for the part where k'naan starts going "it's better to light a candle than to curse the dark" ... that's the best part.

hope you all are happy and healthy and sane ;0)
