Sunday afternoon

This Sunday several Crescent Hill folks met with James Lees and Covenant Community reps to plan for food preparation for the May-June term of the English as a foreign language teaching ministry. Crescent Hill volunteers will cover Derby week, the last full week of May, and the first full week of June and will help James Lees and Covenant Community, especially with set up and clean up, as needed, especially helping Covenant Community on Wednesday, May 11. James Lees’ Pastor Phil also showed several attending changes to the James Lees/Covenant Community kitchen, which had been renovated over the weekend partly to try to identify the source of a water leak on the east side of the kitchen (pictured above).

Later that afternoon Crescent Hill and James Lees folks were among those who attended an American Civil Liberties Union forum on immigration issues. Louisville lawyer Becca O’Neill (in the middle of the panel pictured below) pointed out that, in spite of the defeat of many of the Arizona-style bills proposed in Kentucky and other states, in Kentuckiana and elsewhere, law enforcement authorities have already been implementing many provisions and helping cause overcrowding in the metro Louisville jail.
