Special Invitation to the Detroit African World Festival '09
"The Family Gathers"
From: Kwatamani Holistic Institute
Date: February 17, 2009
Greetings:
We recently received an email of special invitation to the High Priest Kwatamani and the Kwatamani Royal Family that we are sharing below with all those who may be interested. In reference to the African World Festival in Detroit, and in response to the many thousands of you who have contacted us during the past two years requesting our presence at the festival, we send this message.
Special note from the High Priest Kwatamani:
Let us be reminded that the African World Festival used to average one million plus people in attendance. Let us all work together within the spirit of our sacred ancestral presence and see if we can become even stronger in the gathering of the ancestral family during these sacred times of the Triple Nine Prophecy. So to the many thousands on our email list and others who will receive this message via group mail, we ask and urge that you spread the word. The ultimate mission is to bring forward the resurrection of the sacred ancestral spirit presence of the Divine Children of the Sun and the Sacred Garden Culture from which we come.

Response from the High Priest Kwatamani and the Kwatamani Royal Family
Greetings to the dear staff of the African World Festival,
I have just spoken to the High Priest Kwatamani and the Kwatamani Royal Sisterhood. The African World Festival remained as one of our annual top priorities with the Kwatamani Holistic Institute before our departure from the States to our ancestral sanctuary within the rainforest. We herein affirm that we will indeed make it a top priority to participate in the festival this August. Although the High Priest does not come out of the sanctuary too often these days, it is safe to say that he and the entire Royal Family will return just as this magnificent event returns to the Hart Plaza location. Please expect us to participate in each of the described areas as well as once again pouring the libation, including the traditional drumming at the opening ceremony.
We await further communication.
In the Most Supreme Spirit of Love,
Royal Priestess Gail Kwatamani
Oshami of the Kwatamani Royal Sisterhood
