Silicon Valley- African-American Cultural Center project, official Kickoff

The saying goes, "If you want to locate the African-American Community in Santa Clara county, simply go to church on Sunday". With that in mind the African-American Cultural Center (AACC) project recently sponsored the South Bay Christian Ministers Union Prayer Breakfast held at the Lagos Church in San Jose California. The South Bay Christians Ministers Union represents over 35 prominent churches in the greater south bay. The AACC made a presentation of the AACC project to the Ministers and others present at the over capacity prayer breakfast. The response to the presentation was overwhelming. Many of the Ministers and Pastors present expressed a commitment to the project and a desire to work hands on towards the projects success.

The culmination of the presentation was a show of support for the project by the South Bay Christians Ministers Union for the project’s success through a "prayer" and "blessing" led by Rev. Reginald Swilley of Maranatha Christian Center. This event was the “official” kickoff of the Silicon Valley- African-American Cultural Center project, only one of many to come.
