Akan Kente cloth

Today, we visit Holy Fire Dynamic World International Church, a Ghanaian church that celebrates it joys in the indigenous African language of Akan. Since 1990, there is a new diaspora of Africans in the United States. More Africans have arrived voluntarily than came in chains prior to 1807, the year we outlawed international slave trafficking to our country. On the Sunday that we visited, under blue skies the church’s colorful banners swung in the wind on the top level of a low rise commercial strip. The music was loud enough to be heard on the sidewalk. The door was open leading to a narrow carpeted staircase. Chris, the usher, welcomed us. After several interviews, at 5:30 we bring you a hymn in Akan from a Holy Fire Dynamic Church soloist.
