Juneteenth is a holiday that commemorates the end of slavery in the United States. It is celebrated on June 19th, which is the anniversary of the day that enslaved people in Galveston, Texas, were finally informed of their freedom. While Juneteenth has been celebrated in African American communities for many years, it was not officially recognized as a federal holiday until 2021.
There are many reasons why churches should observe Juneteenth. First, it is a day to celebrate freedom. The Bible teaches that all people are created in the image of God and are therefore free.
