Faith In Fashion

We are thrilled to announce our third annual Faith In Fashion event which marks the collaboration between Roxbury Presbyterian Church Social Impact Center and iconic Boston fashion designer David Josef. This extraordinary fundraising event includes some of Boston’s top designers and models. AND it is our biggest fundraiser of the year! There will be great food, wine, fantastic entertainment and this year, we are thrilled to welcome our special guest singer/actor Nik Walker, currently starring as Aaron Burr in the touring company of the hit Broadway musical ‘Hamilton.’

It promises to be a big night, bringing together people of faith, people of fashion and a variety of others from all over the Boston area who are committed to love, healing, and social justice.

Please mark the date and share this notice with your personal list of friends & family!

The Prophet Project

The Prophet Project – a play in one act

Following the storyline of Hosea and Gomer, and using only the words of the ancient Hebrew prophets, The Prophet Project is a visceral, beautiful retelling of God’s relentless love for humanity. Challenging and encouraging, disturbing and inspiring, it is an unique opportunity to grow in one’s own faith, as well as to invite non-Christian lovers of art, and to help Jewish friends see echoes of Christ in Scripture.

The 2013 production was awarded with the Making a Difference in Christian Service Award and the Eldin Villafañe Award for High Distinction in Christian Service, both from Gordon Conwell’s Boston Campus. Still Small is now reviving the production with a new cast, additional music, and updated design.

All performances will be followed by an optional talkback in which the audience can ask questions and have an informal discussion with the cast and creative team.

August 9, 10, 16, & 17
7 pm shows each night, additional 3 pm matinee on Saturdays.

Single Release Concert & Poetry Night at Charles Street AME

Greetings,

I am writing to invite you to a Single Release Concert and Poetry Night at Charles Street AME in Dorchester on June 14th at 7 pm.

I have been in the United Kingdom for the past 4 years at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland where I recently completed my PhD program.

My PhD graduation is on July 10th back in the UK which I will be attending. However, I don’t want to go alone. I want to return with my family (four of us). Unfortunately, I don’t have the funds to purchase four flight tickets and pay for hotel accommodation for the brief time in the UK. So, I decided to release a single I have been working on at a concert and poetry night. Attached is the flyer.

I will also be singing from my previous two gospel albums, reading from my upcoming book on Poetic Expressions as well as commenting on social and penal issues from my book: Locked Up and Locked Down: Multitude Lingers in Limbo Revised Edition. Below is the Eventbrite link for more details. Thanks for your support.
