CLOUT Prepares for March 22 Action Assembly
Join us on Monday, March 22 at the Louisville International Convention Center as we call on our school and juvenile justice system to "Plug the School to Prison Pipeline" by including Restorative Justice practices in their options for responses to student misbehavior.
A fact sheet on the issue is available, as is the content of an op-ed (written in part by Joe Phelps) that has been submitted to the Courier Journal.
On-Line Lenten Devotionals
Following are a selection of daily Lenten devotional that can be accessed online. You may wish to explore each of them and then decide on one that you’ll use each day, or perhaps one in the morning and one in the evening.
May you create a daily Lenten rhythm that brings you life, reflection, peace, intimacy with God.
