Honor Thy Father Breakfast – June 18, 2011

Posted under Uncategorized

 

The Men of the Lambda Iota Sigma chapter of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. present the 2nd annual "Honor Thy Father" Awards Celebration Breakfast.  Our honored keynote speaker is Former San Diego Charger and current Marriage and Family Pastor at The Rock Church Darren Carrington.  Pastor Carrington works with many groups throughout the San Diego community such as "All Pro Dads" that sponsors a free monthly breakfast providing an opportunity for fathers to invest in their children and strengthen their relationships. 

The Lambda Iota Sigma Chapter of the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. and LIS Foundation wish to honor everyday fathers who unselfishly raise, support and love their children or the charges they take under their wing. The “Honor Thy Father” Awards Celebration attempts to identify and recognize fathers who play a vital role in the development of their children’s lives while at the same time extending themselves into their community to promote good will to all. These men also display the excellent tenets of manhood, fatherhood and leadership within their community . They promote a positive fathering role model and highlight the tremendous responsibility that fatherhood bestows without failure or complaint.

Our celebration extends rare honors to everyday fathers, and we will honor four noteworthy individuals in our community that exemplify the ideals and traditions of Fatherhood. The “Honor Thy Father” Awards are generally given in four (4) categories: ‘Shujaa’ (single Father Award), ‘Anajali’ (married Father Award), ‘Hekima’ (mentor Father Award), and ‘Mzee’ (senior elder Father Award). Nominations are open to the public and we invite you to nomine those individuals you believe meet the descriptions set forth in the category for which he is nominated.  He must be a father who participates in church or place of worship, school, extracurricular activities and community activities in which his child(ren) are involved. And he must provide financial and emotional support for his child(ren).

This event is designed to honor all Fathers, but, especially, the nominees. All nominees will be honored, but there will be only one winner in each category. Winners will be announced during the annual “Honor Thy Father” Awards Celebration Breakfast. Winners must be present.
