Amistad Celebration
The United
Church of Christ sponsored a huge celebration of the
Amistad and our Congregationalist ancestors' fight to
free the slaves it carried from Africa. All area churches
were invited to attend and help with the events of the
day. See more about it on the Massachusetts UCC web site. |
