M.A.N.N.A. “ What is it?...” ( Exodus 16:15) 12/21/16
( black) Men Acclaiming New and Noble Aspirations
“Manna”is a word associated with the sustenance allotted the Children of Israel when they were experiencing hunger during their wilderness en route to the promised land of Israel. Yahweh-GOD sent them this food which was a sort of tasty sweet wafer. Manna was sent to them during a crisis and when they needed an assurance that Yahweh God was with them. The Manna was not merely a daily physical provision that remained with the children of Israel throughout their wilderness wanderings. It was an assurance, a sign and a symbol that GOD walked with them, indeed that GOD walked before them as an all-seeing guardian.
( Black) Men Acclaiming New and Noble Aspirations or M.A.N.N.A. is an endeavor to unify all black males into an organization that purports that sheer numbers when unified can produce agenda, revenue, hope, heightened levels of righteousness, increased elevations of morality, greater enterprise and undertakings, knowledge, legacy, etc. M.A.N.N.A. can certainly and without a doubt, be a strong economic power in the black communities.To be unified is better than non-unification- (that is a question I’m putting to the black public).
The recent shootings on Chicago’s south side, killing three and one person left in critical condition, the baby found in the house was sent for further observation, carries with it some revealing and underlying observations; what kind of persons or person could be so cold and callous as to use firearms with a young child in the home. MANNA the organization will be a spiritual family, secular for those more inclined towards economic and social stability, and an organization created to welcome those wanting to free ourselves from the chains of community depravations.
Murder and disgusting violence such as the crime noted above must (shall) hold an unparralled shame by a united black community and for those crimes that violate our standard codes of civilities and moral precepts- that is the new difference . Please join. See website we-grow.net for reference or call me, Kelsie Wicks (708) 890-3007 to enroll. No money needed.
Post script:
(a). Please stay with the community organziations and associations to which you now belong. You can become a member of M.A.N.N.A. and stay loyal to your current affilaitions.
(b). The second segment of our first film, "Deliverance #1"was recorded today with maybe 2-3 more segments remaining. The rest of our book "Testimonies, Viewpoints, and Stories " just waiting on donated submissions from the public and I can put the rest of the publication together (75-80% complete). The second book and second film I think will be easier after the public undersstands and hopefully becomes more sympathetic for the work that has gone forth towards both of their productions (i.e. the book and the film".
(c) The black community has unique issues to deal with in terms of its comprehensive uplifting This website and my endeavors welcome any other racial groups who identify with our efforts for national community choirs, better health, church leadership affirmation, etc. to do the same. The destiny of the black community is first of all in the hands of The Most High GOD, and to the human ability of black talents and gifts to combine "faith with works".

Mission- to unite adult Black males living in the U.S. into an organization for purposes of permanently enhancing the quality of life for black people in America and elsewhere when possible.
1. MANNA recognizes the influence of sheer numbers and the presence and recognition that such huge numbers of black men can make an unprecedented , sustainable, visible and meaningful presence into the lives of black Americans.
2. The spiritual/biblical connotations from the name of the organization MANNA, ushers in a fresh newness, uniqueness, hopefulness and group dynamic for propelling near black solidarity in the black community.
a. MANNA . members will submit a basic commitment to “ raise the personal bar”.
3. To lend support to the national black women’s organization, W.A.V.E. whose mission and goals are similar to that of MANNA’s.
a. Two huge national black men’s and women’s organizations supporting one another is strategically and perceptually impactful than a mere request for black people to unite.
4. To discuss local and national spiritual, social, and spiritual objectives.
5 . To create local committees in the black communities that work closely with national committees serving their respective causes.
