The Open Door

Thanks to a partnership with JCCEO, Jefferson State Community College, The Literacy Council of Central Alabama, and Independent Presbyterian Church, the former Kingston Elementary School is opening its doors for English Second Language and GED classes with child care provided. Today marked the open house and I stopped in to have a look around. What a wonderful facility for learning and success. I'll go back in the coming weeks to photograph the ESL classes in progress!

If you would love to get involved, contact The Literacy Council for volunteer opportunities!

Shhhh, GED students hard at work

JUMP!!!!

Yesterday afternoon, Independent Presbyterian Church held a community cookout after their 5:00 o'clock service.  It was a great afternoon full of hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill, live music, and face painting and the all time favorite "jumpy jump" for the kids. It was a wonderful way for church members to welcome the neighborhood. Might I add, I had a BALL!
