There needs no explanation to you of the magnitude of the season of life we are in as a nation. We can’t thank you enough for your support and for being here and in this fight with us. As you all know, Juneteenth is a special holiday for us here at the Witness as we seek to celebrate our journey and the amplifying of black voices within the faith community and beyond, and this year remains no different. 
We are humbly excited to announce our Juneteenth digital celebration “Free To Be”. It hasn’t gotten any easier in our country to feel free to be whoever we were called to be, we believe "The greatest pursuit in life is becoming the fullest version of yourself. We honor the fight it took to get here, celebrate the people who embody it most, and rock with each other no matter where we are in the process."
Friday, June 19th starting at 10 am cst (with a special kid specific session at 930 am) we will offer a wide array of sessions around this topic with our always intended goal of presenting some of the best unique and emerging voices across many disciplines.
