Celebrating National Caribbean Heritage Month with CAG

Events this week: The Caribbean Association of Georgia


After a hiatus, here at MaHDD T'ings we are simply picking up where we left off.  We are always moving forward so here we are, halfway in 2015, and we are still on the journey.  Praise to the Almighty!
Focus: www.caribbeangeorgia.org

June is National Caribbean Heritage Month and we are celebrating our Caribbean Heritage.  There is more to us than just party and food - believe that, however, it IS a large part of our culture.  After all, we are a people that believe that one should ENJOY life.  Slow down sometimes, smell the roses...and whatever else you like to smell :-).

This week is special too as we work with the Caribbean Association of Georgia (CAG), one of the most active, non-profit organizations in Georgia.  The Association is 
"...dedicated to enhancing the quality of life of society's most vulnerable by providing necessary services to the Georgia and Caribbean Community...committed to...playing a catalytic role in educating, enlightening, empowering, encouraging, inspiring, and informing others. "

We would like to share the following video as provided compliments of the The Tabernacle of Praise Church in McDonough.  This highlights the relationships that the Caribbean Association of Georgia supports. 

A picture is worth at least thousands of words.  Watch the Atlanta Dream fully involved with sharing the Caribbean Culture.
