Healthy Churches 2030 Conference begins each day with worship and thanksgiving. Annually at this time of year, we gather from diverse faith communities. However, central to our gathering is our belief in the presence and power of the One God and the spiritual authority of His son, Jesus Christ. This one-of-a-kind conference brings faith and public health together to forge solutions to the long-standing alarming rates of health disparities among African Americans. We also welcome our faith partners from across the continent of Africa. Comparable to African Americans, too many human beings living throughout the Black Diaspora suffer and die needlessly from a lack of health access and resources, poverty, and poor health behaviors.
