Cultural Centers and Bookstores
Institutions designed to strengthen our identification with the Black experience and build a positive Black identity by maintaining our connection to our African heritage and culture.

Community Service Centers
Our mission is to provide quality social services, educational opportunities, recreational activities and cultural programs that can address the practical needs and interests of our community. We even offer educational programs designed to bridge the digital divide, by providing Black people with the training and skills necessary for the modern technological world.

Beulah Land Farms
This 2700-acre site is located along a five mile stretch of Secession Lakefront property on the Georgia-South Carolina border. Beulah Land is a multi-faceted agricultural complex, with agriculture, aquaculture (fisheries), timber, poultry, dairy, hog and cattle operations, and sod farming, with projections of canneries, food processing plants, a school, a church, summer camp and retreat center, truck depot and boat marina. The church hopes to eventually produce enough food to offer charitable disaster relief to suffering people around the world. Beulah Land Farms represents the opportunity for Black People to realize GOD’s will – to live as a self-determined People of God.

Alkebu-lan Academy Youth Centers
Our mission is to prepare Black youth for leadership in a Pan African World community. We prepare them for the experience of God through:

sacramental worship through
the Science of Kua (becoming what we already are)
systematic socialization for Communal Living
the harmonious integrated development of Spirit, Mind and Body
moral and faith development
the acquisition of basic skills and preparation for effective and creative inclusion in
the computer dominated information age
and preparation for commitment to and participation in the worldwide struggle to liberate Black People everywhere.

The Pan African Orthodox Christian Church is building the Institutional System which will be the foundation for the establishment of a Liberated Pan African World Community
