The list of the best things to do in Detroit is exhaustive, in all the best ways. Not only does the Motor City ooze history (hello, Motown Record Corporation and Ford Motor Company), but artists, creatives, chefs and the like are busy opening some of the country’s best coffee shops, restaurants and bohemian stores. Detroit is also home to fab art museums, trendy markets, some of the best pizza in America and heaps more cool stuff. Check out our list below of the best things to do in Detroit and start planning your next trip to Michigan's largest city.
Belle Isle Aquarium What is it? One of Detroit’s truly historic icons and the oldest public aquarium in the US. Why go? The Belle Isle Aquarium opened in 1904, and within the ornate building features a single large gallery under an arched, green-tile ceiling, to evoke a spookily-accurate underwater ambience. The aquarium (which also served as a speakeasy during Prohibition) is now run by volunteers and opens every Friday to Sunday, 10am-4pm. If you’re heading over to Belle Isle – a 982-acre island park on the Detroit River
Detroit Historical Museum What is it? Home to bite-size exhibitions showcasing the city’s rich 300- year history. Why go? The Detroit Historical Museum details vital moments in the making of the Motor City and Old Detroit, but it’s the ever-evolving temporary exhibits that keep people flocking to this quaint Midtown institution. In particular, the displays focusing on the city’s rich artistic heritage, which is often unjustly left for dust by its automotive accomplishments.
31 | Page GREATHEBREWAWAKENING.ORG
Motown Historical Museum What is it? Music legends were made in this modest Detroit house. Why go? At 2648 West Grand Blvd you'll find Hitsville USA. In other words, the home of Motown Records, which was founded by Berry Gordy in 1959 in this very house. Many greats recorded here, including Marvin Gaye, The Supremes and Stevie Wonder, while other legends have contributed to the museum. Paul McCartney helped fund the restoration of Motown's 1877 Steinway & Sons grand piano, which you can see in all its glory, and Michael Jackson donated a hat, glove and thousands of dollars. Whether you're a music nut or not, the Motown Museum is a must-see.
The RiverWalk What is it? A 5.5-mile promenade unfurling alongside the city’s spectacular waterfront. Why go? The RiverWalk boasts outstanding views of the Detroit River beyond. During the summer months it offers a cooler place to exercise than the heat of the city, with locals flocking in their thousands to run, walk or cycle its picturesque course. There are plenty of way stations en route too: for eating, drinking and bike/kayak renting. For those visiting for the first time, there are also free RiverWalk tours given by the excellent Detroit Experience Factory.
Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation What is it? A look at Detroit's industrial and cultural past. Why go? They don't call Detroit the Motor City for nothing. Widely considered the centre of America's automotive industry, it's here that Henry Ford birthed the idea of manufacturing affordable cars via an assembly line. Learn about that and more at Henry Ford's sprawling museum. Visitors can see the limousine in which JFK was assassinated, the bus on which Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat and behind- the-scenes at the Rouge Factory, which is still in operation today.
Eastern Market What is it? A one-stop, six-block shop of foodie heaven. Why go? As the largest historic market in the country, Eastern Market covers an enormous 43 acres, selling pretty much every kind of food imaginable—as well as hosting the largest open-air flowerbed market in the US. It can get very busy—some 45,000 people come here every Saturday—so if you need a breather, head to the Russell Street Deli, where a delicious breakfast menu is served all day, including their famous fresh hotcakes with toasted pecans and maple syrup.
32 | Page GREATHEBREWAWAKENING.ORG Detroit Theater District What is it? The second largest theatre district in America (after Broadway). Why go? Many of Detroit's theaters can be found in grand, historic buildings. Like the Opera House, an ornate structure that parts of which were designed by Charles Howard Crane and date back to 1906. Crane also designed Fox Theatre's original flagship 'movie palace', which opened in 1928 and remains today. Also worth a visit is the quirky, cabaret-style Century Theatre (lacted inside Gem Theatre), which is especially good for comedy.
Campus Martius Park What is it? The 'point of origin' of Detroit’s coordinate system (seven miles north is Seven Mile Rd, another mile then Eight Mile Rd, etc.). Why go? Campus Martius Park remains one of the city’s most important focal points. It’s also one of the best places to hang out for a chilled afternoon: Relax with a specialty coffee from Roasting Plant (and marvel at their Javabot), or go for a spin round the seasonal ice rink and enjoy a hot cup of cocoa in the colder months.
Detroit Institute of Arts
What is it? A prime art collection, including pieces by Picasso, Matisse and Van Gogh.
Why go? Justifiably renowned worldwide, the Detroit Institute of Arts' coup de grace is ‘Rivera Court’; an entire room of outstanding frescoes painted in situ by Mexican artist Diego Rivera during a visit in 1932 with his wife Frida Kahlo. Visit on a Friday evening, when the museum stays open until 10pm and Rivera Court hosts free concerts. And if that’s not enough for your artistic appetite, there’s also the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, which you'll find in a former Albert Kahn auto dealership.
Charles H. Wright African American Museum Why go? This large museum, named for its founder Charles Wright, tells the story of the African American experience from the beginning of time to the presidency of Barack Obama. Opened in 1965, the museum welcomes guests to it 125,000 square feet of both permanent and rotating exhibits, as well as a library and theater.
33 | Page GREATHEBREWAWAKENING.ORG Comerica Park Why go? If you're not much of a baseball fan, this ballpark – home field for the Detroit Tigers – is for you. While diehard fans are glued to their seats in hopes of catching a fly ball, casual onlookers can enjoy some of the park's more unusual attractions, including a carousel, a 50-foot Ferris wheel, a beer hall, a food court, plus a center field water feature that's synchronized to music. Perhaps it's these unique diversions that earned Detroit a spot on the list of 10 Best Cities for Baseball Fans to Visit.
Detroit Zoo Why go? Many recent travelers called the Detroit Zoo one of the city's best family attractions. Spread out across 125 acres and boasting more than 2,400 animals, the zoo has a longstanding history in Detroit (it's been open since 1928). Of the zoo's 12 habitats, perhaps the most popular among recent visitors is the Polk Penguin Conservation Center, which debuted in 2016. This 326,000-gallon, 25-foot-deep aquatic area allows zoo visitors to observe more than 80 penguins of four different species explore their habitat. Plus, thanks to an underwater gallery with two tunnels, visitors can see the birds above, around and below.

Asking where you should eat in Detroit is a lot like figuring out who the best Motown singer was. Marvin Gaye? The Supremes? Stevie Wonder when he was the most talented child on Earth? There are a lot of options to choose from, but luckily that’s where we come in.
Here’s our guide to where the Great Awakening Hebrews to Negroes Mega Conference compiled of our favorite places to eat and drink across the Motor City. It includes everything from the city’s best coney dogs to where to get Thai food and barbecue in Corktown, along with some great group dinner options in between. We’ve only scratched the surface, but this is a great start for when you’re in Detroit.
Detroit Vegan Soul 8029 Agnes St Detroit, MI 48214 (313) 444-9402 Detroit Vegan Soul is a magical place where vegans and carnivores can get together and at least agree on one thing: the hush puppies are amazing. Come here with your coworker who doesn’t believe tofu can taste good or your vegan friend who won’t have to ask for any substitutions for once. We’re partial to the sandwiches, like the BBQ tofu and veggie burger, but everything is good here and will likely be one of the healthier things you’ve eaten in a while.
Sweetwater Tavern 400 E Congress St Detroit, MI 48226 (313) 962-2210 Looking to catch a game, grab a beer, and eat some wings? Sweetwater is the answer. Staying near the Renaissance Center or Hart Plaza for a work event and want some wings? Go to Sweetwater. Are you sitting on a friend’s couch and are suddenly overrun with the urge to eat delicious chicken wings? Hear us out - you should go to Sweetwater. What we’re trying to say is that Sweetwater Tavern has excellent wings and it’s the main reason we keep going back to this downtown classic. The ribs, rib tips, burgers, and general bar food are also all good, in case this is the one time in your life when you don’t in fact want wings.
35 | Page GREATHEBREWAWAKENING.ORG Lafayette Coney Island 118 W Lafayette Blvd Detroit, MI 48226 (313) 964-8198 Coney Islands are a way of life in Detroit and while the city has gone through a lot of changes over the years, Lafayette Coney Island remains one of the few constants. It’s a downtown dive institution that serves the best Detroit-style coney dogs in the world. “One up with everything” is the basic order, which is a hot dog with chili, onions, and mustard on a bun. But one coney dog isn’t enough, so your standard order is two up with everything, chili cheese fries, and a cold beer. Don’t be shy if you need a third coney, or consider ordering a slice of their sneaky good pie.
American Coney Island 114 W Lafayette Blvd Detroit, MI 48226 (313) 961-7758 American Coney Island is located directly next door to Lafayette and is actually the original of the two, while Lafayette is the result of a family fight. The two are pretty similar, with American being the more updated, 24 hour option (Lafayette closes at 3am). Consider trying coneys from both before deciding where your allegiance lies, but never trust a Detroiter who doesn’t have a preference.
Buddy’s Pizza 17125 Conant St Detroit, MI 48212 (313) 892-9001 Detroit-style pizza is less famous than its Chicago and New York counterparts, but as it gains popularity outside of Michigan, it’s important to point out where it started: Buddy’s Pizza in Hamtramck. This local chain has since opened 12 locations across Detroit, meaning you can get your fix of the rectangular, thick crust pan pies wherever you are in town. If this is your first time visiting, make sure to stop at Buddy’s.
36 | Page GREATHEBREWAWAKENING.ORG WHAT TO BRING TO THE CONFERENCE?
Great Awakening Hebrews to Negroes Mega Conference is a busy, thrilling few days. Among meeting Hebrews from across the country, participating in sessions and forums, you will be making friends, participating in unforgettable events, and creating new memories. The weekend requires a great deal of preparation and energy. Below you will find a few reminders and tips to ensure a safe, fun time at this year’s conference.
Bible, notebook, & pen or pencil (any translation of the Bible is fine; we most commonly use the Cepher, HalleluYah Scriptures, the Scriptures, or KJV) Business cards. You’ll never have enough business cards, so bring a stack. Have them readily available to hand out. Pack sunglasses and sunscreen. Although we will be in air-conditioned rooms and inside most of the day, Detroit will be hot and humid. Hygiene Essentials. This is separate from what you leave in your hotel bathroom. Bring a small brush, some make up, hand sanitizer (you will be amongst crowds of strangers in small breakout rooms) and any other necessary item to freshen up halfway through the day. Conferences have long days and are often made up of two parts – the educational daytime and the special events in the evening. Sometimes you won’t be able to go back to your hotel and change or freshen up, so come prepared. Back up battery. You’ll be using your phone and/or tablet a lot during the conference, so bring an extra battery if you don’t have time to sit by a wall charger A sweatshirt or sweater for air-conditioned rooms, if you are susceptible to chills. Casual clothing and comfortable walking shoes. All activities are casual. Shorts, t-shirts, jeans, and tennis shoes are appropriate. Medicine: Please let us know if you need assistance. Bring your insurance card or a copy of your insurance card. Flyers, publications, newsletters, etc. that you have of your ministry, assembly, or business to share with other Hebrews. Additional Items: Alarm clock, cell phone charger, spending money, camera, toiletries, and flip flops for the shower. For those who owns a shofar, we encourage you to bring it to blow during special moments during the conference. Lots of energy and enthusiasm and enough clothes for three days!

Keynote Speaker: Rabbi Akwetey Amaah is founder of Kingdom of Kings Academy World Wide and Leadership for The 3rd World. He is an accomplished author, global lecturer, renowned educator, Bible scholar, counselor, and thinker. He makes use of ancient wisdom and modern wit to captivate his audiences around the world. Rabbi Amaah is a professionally- ranked speaker and lecturer who have touched the lives of people from all walks of life, transforming many by his provocative questions, eyeopening lectures, revealing seminars, and captivating interviews.
Kingdom of Kings Academy World Wide is a place where biblical study comes to life. It is geared towards those seeking in-depth and textual understanding of the Bible from its original Hebraic perspective. Rabbi Amaah still serves as Dean and Senior Lecturer at Kingdom of Kings Academy World Wide.
Leadership For The 3rd World is an international leadership organization created to address the challenges of 21st-century leaders and their philosophies within the context of the 3rd World and the Diaspora. Its goals are to educate and rebuild self-concepts, self- worth, and self-esteem with a focus of erasing the stain of oppression and abuse on the 3rd World conscience.
Rabbi Amaah’s philosophy is, “TEACH DON’T PREACH!” Preaching sometimes conveys information in a way that has a “fire and brimstone” quality without paying attention to how the audience actually interacts with what is being said or how the audience feels. The preacher often conveys an emotionally-charged message that emphasizes the “straightening out” of the individual to accept what is being communicated, sine quaestione, and neglecting to highlight the importance of thought-provoking, reflective questioning in the individual. Teaching, on the other hand, invites the questioner to contemplate the subject matter at hand and provides an opportunity for clarity of the subject matter. It spurs the individual on to more in-depth, contemplative research and meaningful study. Moreover, the audience gets time to interact with and understand the
79 | Page GREATHEBREWAWAKENING.ORG subject matter on their own terms, at their level. Teaching encourages authentic exploration of a subject matter without judgment.

80 | Page GREATHEBREWAWAKENING.ORG LAKE BAPTISM IN THE DETROIT RIVER
Congratulations on your decision to get baptized during the Great Awakening Hebrews to Negroes Mega Conference! This serves as your confirmation letter for your upcoming baptism.
Being water baptized is a natural step of obedience to the scriptures. Acts 2:38 commands us to “Repent and be baptized”. Your decision to be baptized in water is an act of obedience to this instruction the Bible has given us. It is an outward testimony of the internal change that has taken place in the awakened Hebrew life. Through water baptism, we identify with Mashiach's death, burial, and resurrection not just in a moment, but as a way of living.
By participating in this lake baptism at Belle Isle Park in Detroit, MI you are publicly declaring the decision you have made to be a follower of Mashiach.
To be baptized is to follow Mashiach in obedience. Please remember that baptism will not save anyone. In fact, the only requirement for baptism is that you have already trusted Yahshua/Yahusha/Yahushua/Yahawashi as your personal Mashiach. This is a big step in the Awakening for you. To be baptized in the name of the Messiah’s true name is direct obedience to the scriptures. It is the very first step in obedience to Yah after being forgiven of your sins.
Baptism is a celebration of what Yah has done in the life of a Mashiach follower. The Scriptures teaches us that followers of the Mashiach are to be baptized and that it is one of the first steps in this lifelong journey of discipleship.
Please find important information about your baptism experience during the Great Awakening Hebrews to Negroes Mega Conference on Sunday July 14, 2019.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR WATER BAPTISM CANDIDATES
As you take this incredible step in the Awakening process, here are some instructions for your upcoming baptism:
1. Invite Everyone: Remember to Invite all of your Friends and Family. This is a time of celebration for what Yah has done in your life. This is also one of the few times you will have friends and family who are completely focused on and how the Awakening has changed your life. Scripture tells us to “Make the most of every opportunity when dealing with unbelievers” and to “Always be ready to give a reason for the hope that you have.” With this in mind, we try to be very intentional about sharing your testimonies and the awakening with our guests. Please invite them all. 2. Arrive Early: On Sunday July 14, 2019 please arrive at Belle Isle Park Beach by 8:00am. This way you can be relaxed, and ready to go. Arriving at 6:00am will give us time to walk through the logistics before the baptism begins. We will show you the lake (Detroit River), talk through how things will work, and answer any questions you may have. You will have a chance during your baptism to answer a question about why you want to be baptized. We will discuss this with you beforehand so that you know what to expect and are comfortable with the process. 3. During Baptism: Here is the process for the actual physical immersion in water. We will help you step into the lake (Detroit River). One of our Baptizers will stand to one side of you, usually to your left. You are encouraged to plug your nose and put other hand on your chest or arm. Our Baptizers will put one hand on your back and the other on your arm or hand. Our Baptizers will hold you as you are dunked. You need to lean backwards into the water with the baptizer’s support until you are completely under water. Just relax and lean back, and then the baptizer will help you sit back up. While you are being baptized, the baptizer will say something along these lines: “We say the following: "In obedience to the command of our Mashiach and based upon the profession of your faith, I now baptize you in the Name and in the authority of Yahusha/Yahshua/Yahawashi." Buried with Mashiach [immerse in water], Raised to walk in new life [emerge from water].” Feel free to express your joy, look out at your friends, wave at your family, and cheer if you want. Just be yourself. This is a community celebration, so feel free to celebrate with your friends, family, and hundreds of Hebrews on sight.
82 | Page GREATHEBREWAWAKENING.ORG After your baptism, we will help you step out of the river, and a helper will hand you and towel and help you out of the Lake so that you can go and change your clothes. 4. All candidates, male and female, are required to bring the following: a. For women, Capri or lightweight pants and a neutral color T-shirt. b. For men, appropriate swimwear and a neutral color T-shirt. c. Please wear appropriate clothing that won’t be harmed by getting wet. d. Keep in mind how the material will look on you when it is wet, so you can take the necessary steps to be modest at all times (no white t-shirts!). e. Bring a light jacket as temperatures can be quite cool early in the morning in Michigan. f. Beach Towel. g. Change of clothes. h. Women in their menstrual cycle should take proper precautions as far as utilizing hygienic items. i. Bathing cap (optional). 5.

Be Prepared to Share: Be prepared to give brief answers to the following questions: A. How do you describe the feeling of being baptized in the true name of the Messiah? B. How the Awakening has changed your life?
BAPTISM OF THE RUACH
After you have been baptized in water in the Detroit River at the Belle Isle Beach, Pastors Melvin and Andrea Rhines of Minnesota, MN will be facilitating Baptism in the Ruach for those who desire this experience. This is optional for baptism candidates. The filling of the Ruach (Holy Spirit) is how He empowers and controls us (Acts 4:31; Ephesians 5:18). The indwelling of the Holy Spirit is Yah taking up permanent residence in our lives (John 14:17; Romans 8:9-11; 1 Corinthians 3:16; 6:19; 1 John 4:4). The sealing of the Ruach (Holy Spirit) is Yah marking us as His permanent possession (Ephesians 1:13-14).
Baptism in the Ruach (Holy Spirit) does two things. First, it identifies us spiritually with the death and resurrection of Mashiach, uniting us with Him. Second, baptism in the Ruach (Holy Spirit) joins us to the body of Mashiach, and identifies us as united with other believers. Practically, baptism in the Ruach (Holy Spirit) means we are risen with Him to newness of life (Romans 6:4), and that we should exercise our spiritual gifts to keep the body of Mashiach functioning properly as stated in 1 Corinthians 12:13. Experiencing baptism in the Ruach (Holy Spirit) serves as an exhortation to keep unity of the assembly (Ephesians 4:5). Being identified with Mashiach in His death, burial, and resurrection-through baptism in the Ruach (Holy Spirit) establishes the basis for realizing our separation from the power of indwelling sin and our walk in newness of life (Romans 6:1-10, Colossians 2:12).
83 | Page GREATHEBREWAWAKENING.ORG ADDITIONAL INFORMATION If you have a physical challenge, please inform us in advance. This will enable us to properly accommodate you. All candidates are encouraged to invite family and friends to attend the ceremony. Cameras and phones with cams are also welcomed. All candidates who pre- registered for baptism will receive an official Baptism Certificate in the mail for keepsake.
BAPTIZERS The Baptism will be facilitated by Awakened Pastors and Morehs from around the country.
