"It is
a “yes” to the challenge of really living life, of saying “no” to the attack
of death that presents itself under the guise of life; and it is a “yes” to
the great gift of true life that became present on the Face of Christ, who gives himself to us in Baptism and subsequently in the Eucharist." Pope Benedict XVI |

Solid Ground Ministry
at the Rites of Ancestral Return African Burial Ground - New York City October 4, 2003 The African Burial Ground in Lower Manhattan represents the important role and major contribution that enslaved African men, women, and children made to the economy, development, and culture of America, both in the South and North. The Rites of Ancestral Return commemorative ceremony, which began with an Evening Departure Ceremony at Howard University, documented and celebrated the contribution of African Americans as the ancestral remains from the African Burial Ground were returned from Washington, D.C., to New York City. The remains were given a permanent resting-place at the African Burial Ground Memorial Site on October 4, 2003. |
