As a founding member of RocACTS, Assumption has worked with this organization to promote black-owned restaurants during the month of February. Be sure to tell the manager and waitstaff that you were referred by RocACTS to show your support.
You are cordially invited to participate in Sacred Conversations on Race to listen, dialogue and engage with approximately 15 people from Fairport and the same number of our black neighbors from Open Arms Christian Fellowship Ministries in Rochester. This may be one of the most important invitations you will receive this year ... it will change forever how you view the world of people of color. Click for full details.
