Change doesn’t come one month a year. Please join us as we continue the conversation of Black History Month by reading together the book, 400 Souls: A Community History of African America, 1619-2020, edited by Ibram X. Kendi and Keisha N. Blain over the next year. The book is broken into ten sections and we will create venues to discuss one section a month. Whether you join us for the discussion or just read it on your own, this book is a wonderful way to know the past and begin to shape the future. 

We are happy to have received a donation of 400 Souls from a member that was purchased through Cerebral Kingdom Bookstore, a local Black-owned bookstore. If you would like one of these copies or want to purchase the book from the Cerebral Kingdom Bookstore book store, please contact the church office at 585-271-1050.

"Sign Up" to read the book at asburyfirst.org/400souls, so we can easily find a way of contacting interested folks for the conversation about the book. You can also call the church office at 585-271-1050 or email info@asburyfirst.org to show your interest.
