The Neighbor-to-Neighbor ministry team is planning to attend two events in January.  All are welcome.

January 19th Capital University, MLK Day of Learning
Unfinished Business: The Ceilings We Break
For over three decades, Capital University has been committed to recognizing, celebrating, and embodying the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Rather than treating this day as a "day off," they encourage campus and community members to engage in a "day on" — a day to be inspired by Dr. King’s vision, reflect on his contributions to civil rights, and actively participate in community-building efforts.  A description of the days’ events can be found at https://www.capital.edu/student-life/arts-and-culture/annual-events/martin-luther-king-jr-day-of-learning/.

January 25th, 4:30pm – First English Lutheran and Urban Connections’ Impacting Community Series Human Trafficking
First English and Urban Connections invite supporters, the community, and experts into discussion about topics that impact our community. As we learn and grow together, speakers are asked to share 3-5 ways that can have a positive impact on our community right away.  Everyone’s invited on the 4th Sunday of every month at 4:30pm at First English Lutheran Church (1015 E. Main Street, Columbus, OH 43205). 

January’s topic is Human Trafficking, with Freedom Ala Cart’s Paula Haines.  Freedom a la Cart is a cafe + bakery + catering business that serves fresh, delicious cuisine.  Each purchase provides workforce training and wrap-around services for survivors of sex trafficking. 

For more information about either of these events, please contact David Kriska.
