Our primary mission in life is to discover our purpose and live within the expression of it in all aspects of our lives. When we are within our purpose, life brings us happiness and completion. We structure programming and service delivery with the clear understanding that within everyone  is the innate ability to obtain the greatest good and highest potential.

When there is blockage, such as disease, unhappiness, depression and other ills, we are often off of our road of purpose or we are being led to learn great lessons about ourselves.

We come into the world perfect, while it is the ego, trauma and conflict that express themselves in our lives for a season. To remedy these issues, we actively work to dismantle the disease and negative thought systems in our lives through personal and communal efforts of change and a better well-being. Learning to eat well and making life choices that are safe and healthy for our lives is what is of ultimate concern.

Empowerment Center comes out of a need to bring our minds, bodies and souls back to center. It is out of regard for self-worth that the guiding principles that have carried our ancestors and elders through life that we too, concretize these life principles to make life meaningful.

Join us in our Sunday Circle, parenting meetings, rites of passage groups, conferences and other gatherings so that we can be the very change agents of light and goodness to the world.

I am because of what our ancestors and elders have taught and lived,

Kristal C. Owens, D.Min., Ph.D., LPC.
Chief Spiritual Officer

Trayvon’s case should spark more outrage and activism

Our outrage and activism should be widened to include the 150 murders of Afrikan brothers in the US each week that are sadly committed by 93% of Afrikan brothers. We have to address the deep hatred by both white supremacy and black subservience (many people hate anything representing Afrikan) in the US. Poverty, disenfranchisement and …
