Brown's Community Development Center extends our heartfelt gratitude to Brown’s Temple Ministries and The Kappa Foundation for sponsoring the NACA Homebuyer Workshop held on Saturday, January 10th. The workshop was a tremendous success, inspiring approximately 200 participants to take steps toward homeownership this year.

We also thank NACA for providing such an impactful program that gives disadvantaged families the opportunity to achieve their dreams of homeownership. This event truly reflects Brown’s CDC mission to promote homeownership, strengthen families, and support long-term economic stability in our community.

Thank you to everyone who attended and supported this meaningful event.

Brown’s Temple Ministries presents

🌸 A Healing Women’s Gathering
🔥 “Shatter the Old, Step into Your New” 🔥
Sis… this is YOUR moment. No more carrying the weight of last season. No more silent battles. No more pretending you’re okay when your soul is begging for release.

On January 31, 2026, • 11:00 AM – 1:30 PM, we’re coming together for a powerful, heart-shifting, chain-breaking experience designed to help you step boldly into your NEW.

💥 WRITE IT. BREAK IT. LET IT GO. We’re literally breaking plates — breaking cycles — breaking the things that tried to break you. This is healing with intention. Healing with power. Healing with sisterhood.

And leading us through this transformational moment is our dynamic facilitator, Dr. Donna Lindsay — Self‑Love Strategist, Leadership Formation Coach, educator, ordained minister, and author of Self‑Love: A Journey Not a Destination and Leading in Love: Heart‑Driven Leadership. With over 30 years of experience helping women rise, she brings a message that hits the soul: ✨ “You do not have to carry it into another season.” ✨
