A North Side unity picnic Sunday drew members, clergy and friends of black churches from across the metro to the North High School football field for a Community Healing & Reconciliation Gathering Sunday afternoon. The picnic, with entertainment and activities was meant to reclaim unity with the community. Several of the ministers will also collaborate as Minneapolis hosts the National Baptist Convention next month.
