Our First Blog!
Wow - what does one put in a first blog post?
The first thing that comes to mind is how thankful I am for the partnerships we are enjoying while building our new web site. Knowing I’ll leave out many of our key partnerships, I’ll just focus on those I enjoyed today. The first that comes to mind is the DeVos Initiative. Had a conversation with DeVos staff member, Gerald, about how to bring about city-wide change in Los Angeles, specifically about how faith-based organizations could work together to bring about economic, spiritual and leadership development in our poorest communities.
Spark3, our web developer, has helped us refine our mess of ideas and thoughts into a clear, logical pattern for our web site, and makes it possible for you to be reading this right now.
Third, the Community Clergy Coalition of Pasadena brings such amazing leadership to our city.
Lastly (for now), Urban Youth Workers Institute put on an incredible training event for all of our staff at their annual conference in May. I think it’s amazing that we have so many opportunities to work with such quality organizations! Peace out. - Curt Gibson, Associate Director
