In partnership with the Town of Andover (Andover DIVERSE), the Andover Baptist Church and the South Church Social Justice Coalition will be hosting the 2nd annual, town-wide Juneteenth celebration on Saturday, June 18th at the Andover Robb Senior Center, 30 Whittier Ct. from Noon to 3 pm. Everyone, of all ages, is welcome.

Juneteenth, a part of our American history, was made an official federal holiday last year. It celebrates the final freeing of enslaved people in Texas in 1865. This was a full 2 1/2 years after Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation when nearly 250,000 people were freed. Juneteenth is also a holiday celebrating Black achievement and resiliency.

Traditionally, families and communities keep the holiday with picnics, barbeques, contests, parades, and public ceremonies and observances.

In the spirit of 150 years of celebration, there will be noted speakers, educational exhibits, fun for children, and door prizes.

Happy Juneteenth!

Andover Baptist Church invites you to join us for the 14th Annual Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day (MLK) Program. A Virtual Unity Celebration!

This year's theme "We Shall Overcome Hate with Love" serves as a powerful reminder of the God-given strength of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.. Where we will draw on his spirit, teachings and learnings to help us overcome the politically charged environment, where people are exhausted by what is going on in the world and to address the racial reckoning in America. To empower us to combat the wide-spread social, racial and judicial inequality wherever it exists by turning pain into purpose in the strength and character of God.

For the first time in our 14 year history we have proudly collaborated with the Town of Andover and partnered with Andover Television to bring our program to you virtually while continuing to provide you with the same rich experience as the in-person event - with the added benefit to watch from the comfort of your home on MLK Jr. Day and again on-demand at your leisure on one of our Andover Baptist Church Social Media sites (Andover Baptist Church Website, Facebook or Youtube Channel) or Live streamed at AndoverTV.org/livestreams (select public channel).

Oh, also, let your friends and family know that this year's program can be viewed in the following communities by tuning into their local Cable Access Channels: 

Boxford/Topsfield, Dracut, Lawrence, Methuen, North Andover, North Reading, & Worcester

Program Highlights: 

Keynote Speaker: State Representative, Tram Nguyen 

Guest Speakers: Town Manager, Andover, Andrew P. Flanagan; Doyinsade Awodele, A Better Chance Program Alumni, Andover, MA

Performing Artists: Andover Baptist Church Unity Choir, Liturgical Dancers, & Orator, Ralph Bledsoe; The Andover Choral Society; The Choral Majority; Temple Emanuel, Cantor Idan Irelander & guest artists

We hope you are able to celebrate MLK Jr. Day with us and that this event serves as a call to empower you to take action against the politically charged environment we are living in, to address racial reckoning in America and combat social inequality wherever it exists by turning pain into purpose in the strength and character of God.

Andover Baptist Church and the Reverend Lyndon A. Myers, Pastor, thanks you for your continued support of our Annual Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day Program.

Commemorates the entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem (Matthew 21:1–9), when palm branches were placed in his path, before his arrest on Holy Thursday and his crucifixion on Good Friday. It thus marks the beginning of Holy Week, the final week of Lent.

APRIL Events

BLACK HISTORY MONTH IS A TIME TO REFLECT ON HISTORICAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF AFRICAN AMERICANS TO THE U.S.HISTORY. THERE ARE SO MANY THAT WE DON'T HEAR OR READ ABOUT IN OUR HISTORY BOOKS. WE'LL TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE STORIES OF NAMES THAT WE SHOULD ALL KNOW. Did you know that Madam C.J. Walker was America’s first woman to become a self-made millionaire, or that George Washington Carver was able to derive nearly 300 products from the peanut? Get the story of the creation of the NAACP, famous firsts in African American history and other black history facts.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH - MEET THE MAN WHO CREATED IT

Why February?

• February 23, 1868:
  W. E. B. DuBois, important civil rights leader and co-founder of the NAACP, was born.
• February 3, 1870:
  The 15th Amendment was passed, granting black citizens the right to vote.
• February 25, 1870:
  The first black U.S. senator, Hiram R. Revels (1822-1901), took his oath of office.
• February 12, 1909:
  The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was founded by a group of concerned black and white citizens in New York City.
• February 1, 1960:
  In what would become a civil-rights movement milestone, a group of black Greensboro, N.C., college students began a sit-in at a segregated Woolworth's lunch counter.
• February 21, 1965:
  Malcolm X, the militant leader who promoted Black Nationalism, was shot to death by three Black Muslims.
