PILGRIM WITH US
MAY 1 - 12, 2025
The Journey Begins Soon
May 1st, we’re hitting the road—from Phoenix, AZ to Durham, NC—for a 12-day pilgrimage into the heart of our calling. Along the way, we’ll be stopping in cities that hold deep meaning to our story and formation.
We’ll introduce you to beloved friends, share reflections at meaningful landmarks, and go LIVE to let you walk this road with us in real time. This page will be our digital trail—bookmark it, follow along, and check back often for videos, photos, and stories as they unfold.
OUR JOURNEY TO
REVERSE MIGRATION
BLK South Matching Campaign
We’re also inviting you to be a part of this journey in another powerful way. We’ve launched a $25,000 Matching Campaign to support our next chapter in Durham. Thanks to generous donors who want to remain anonymous, every dollar you give will be doubled—contributing to our mission to seek the development, vibrancy, and well-being of underserved, historic African American neighborhoods in the South.
Whether you give or simply witness the journey, your presence matters to us. This is a road to new beginnings—a journey our ancestors have taken before — and you’re invited to travel it with us.

Item description

"We had coffee at Lux this morning with our friend and intern, Justus. He asked Kendall and me how we’ve been feeling, now that our big move is just around the corner.
I was tempted to respond with the usual: ‘Good! Great! We’re excited!’ But the truth is—that’s not really how I’ve been feeling. It’s more like a heavy cloud that I can’t quite explain.
There’s a deep sadness in my body—a weight, a darkness, maybe even a hint of depression. I haven’t been able to shake it, and I’m not entirely sure where it’s coming from.”
