DESCRIPTION:California ~ Pan African Kwanzaa Celebration \nFriday, December 26, 
 2014\nNoon ~ 4:00 pm \n\nMedia Contacts:\nPastor Tim Wulah (916) 501-3618 
 \nMichael Harris (916) 997-2451 \n\n“The African Church” Friends in 
 Jesus International  \n8115 A  Elder Creek Road  Sacramento, CA  
 95824\n\nKwanzaa is our “California Grown” holiday showcase of the 
 “first fruits of the harvest” continuing  ancient traditions from the 
 broader Pan African sacred science of agriculture.   \n\nNoon, Friday, 
 December 26, 2014 at the Friends in Jesus International Church, we join 
 millions of people around the world in the spirit of Umoja, unity, with the 
 founder of Kwanzaa, Dr. Maulana Karenga and begin the 48th holiday 
 celebration of Kwanzaa.\n\nMany people privately identify and celebrate 
 Kwanzaa, others join with family and friends at home and still others are 
 seen in very lively annual public community activities that display the 
 vast diversity of the Pan African experience.  Our California Black 
 Agricultural Working Group continue an amazing tradition throughout “the 
 greatest garden of the world” our California Central Valley, leading a 
 complete restoration of Agriculture as the foundation of our culture. \n\nA 
 few dedicated activists, scholars and elected officials are preparing for 
 the Sesquicentennial Celebration of the official beginning of the end of 
 chattel slavery in the United States of America, ratification of the 13th 
 Amendment to our US Constitution.  We pause and lend a hand to our extended 
 family in need, together we have been challenged with an epidemic 
 escalation of the Ebola virus, causing unspoken destruction throughout West 
 Africa, a renewed chapter of the ongoing Maafa.\n\nSacramento Friends in 
 Jesus International ~ “The African Church” has provided unwavering 
 faith and courage leading the serious work to arrest the widespread 
 challenge of Ebola.  From the California State Capitol, the notion of 
 Umoja, will take on new meaning this 48th Season of Kwanzaa. 
 \n\nInterfaith, Inter generational and International appeal this 2014 
 Kwanzaa, we will demonstrate a renewed effort to showcase for future 
 generations the great expectation and civic responsibility people of 
 African ancestry have demonstrated throughout the history of California. 
 \n\nIn the spirit of Umoja, we give a portion of our first fruits of the 
 harvest, in a good way.  We extend the hand of fellowship, building on the 
 golden promise of the California Dream, and do our part to expand efforts 
 toward mutually beneficial California ~ Pan African exchange in harmony 
 with a broader, year-round tangible expression of the symbols and 
 principles of Kwanzaa.\n\n~30~ \n
