June is Caribbean American Heritage Month

Each June, we celebrate Caribbean American Heritage Month, recognizing the immense contributions Caribbean immigrants and their descendants have made to American society. From music and literature to political leadership and activism, Caribbean Americans continue to shape and enrich the cultural fabric of the United States. This is a time for education, celebration, and action—rooted in love and recognition.

📖 Scripture

Revelation 7:9–10 (NIV):

“After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb.”

This beautiful image of heavenly diversity reminds us of God’s intention for inclusion, equity, and celebration of difference.

🙏 Prayer

Loving God, We thank you for the vibrant spirit of Caribbean American Heritage Month. We celebrate the strength, resilience, and rich contributions of the Caribbean American community—their cultures and traditions. Bless them, O Lord, and may their legacy shine brightly. Amen.
