KWANZAA and why we celebrate?
Kwanzaa was created to introduce and reinforce seven basic values (principles) of African culture which contribute to building and reinforcing family, community and culture among African American people as well as Africans throughout the world African community
The 7 Principles
Umoja (Unity) To strive for and maintain unity in the family, community, nation and race.
Kujichagulia (Self-Determination) To define ourselves, name ourselves, create for ourselves and speak for ourselves.
Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility) To build and maintain our community together and make our brother’s and sister’s problems our problems and to solve them together.
Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics) To build and maintain our own stores, shops and other businesses and to profit from them together.
Nia (Purpose) To make our collective vocation the building and developing of our community in order to restore our people to their traditional greatness.
Kuumba (Creativity) To do always as much as we can, in the way we can, in order to leave our community more beautiful and beneficial than we inherited it.
Imani (Faith) To believe with all our heart in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders and the righteousness and victory of our struggle.

Join hundreds to meet and fellowship with Atlanta’s most celebrated faith-based servant, Bishop Eddie Long of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church.
The visionary and leader for New Birth Missionary Baptist Church, Bishop Eddie L. Long first served as pastor in 1987 for a congregation consisting of just more than 300 members. Since his installation, New Birth’s membership has quickly multiplied to well over 25,000.
Bishop Long was honored in 2005 at the Trumpet Awards for his leadership, dedication and service around the world. That same year, he received the "100" award for his tireless efforts in the area of economic development, youth development, education and health awareness by the DeKalb Chapter of the 100 Black Men of America. Particularly for health awareness, Bishop Long was honored by the Center for Disease Control and the National HIV/AIDS Partnership (NHAP) for his outstanding work in fighting the spread of HIV/AIDS.
Bishop Long will be delivering his powerful message
