The Black Church has long been an institution of refuge, mobilization, and healing in Black or African American communities. While health promotion interventions have been implemented in the Black Church, little is known about ways to incorporate faith into colorectal cancer (CRC) screening messages. Using modified boot camp translation, a community-based approach, we met with 27 members of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Atlanta, Georgia, for in-person and virtual sessions to co-create faith-based CRC screening messages and identify channels for sharing information within the church community. Examples of messages developed included "Faith over fear" and "Honor God by taking care of your body." Identified dissemination channels included Sunday service, community events, and social media. Churches serve as key partners in delivering health information, as they are among the most trusted institutions within the Black or African American community.
长期以来，黑人教会一直是黑人或非裔美国人社区中的一个提供庇护、动员和治愈的机构。虽然在黑人教会中已经实施了健康促进干预措施，但对于如何将信仰融入结直肠癌（CRC）筛查信息方面却知之甚少。我们采用一种基于社区的方法——改良新兵训练营翻译法，与佐治亚州亚特兰大的27名非洲卫理公会圣公会成员进行了面对面和虚拟会议，共同创作基于信仰的CRC筛查信息，并确定在教会社区内分享信息的渠道。所制定的信息示例包括“信仰战胜恐惧”和“照顾好身体就是荣耀上帝”。确定的传播渠道包括主日礼拜、社区活动和社交媒体。教会是提供健康信息的关键伙伴，因为它们是黑人或非裔美国人社区中最受信任的机构之一。
