Poverty Summit 2015 Invitation
What would Lucas County look like if every Christian church were working in some loosely but strategically coordinated manner?What would the church itself look like?
You are invited to attend the Poverty Summit 2015 — Mind the Gap.
The goal of this FREE one day event is to develop a plan for the Christians in Lucas County

Dr. John Perkins will be our inspiring keynote speaker this year. Dr. Perkins started the Christian Community Development Association and has guided hundreds of communities and ministries in addressing poverty.
Breakout Sessions will include:
~ What Gap? Understanding what the church needs to know about poverty
~ Building the Bridge: Steps out of poverty and into autonomy
~ Bridging the Gap: A unified approach to poverty in Lucas County. What can the churches do and how to collaborate for those willing to do so.

“… then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in
spirit and of one mind. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.”
Philippians 2:2-4 NIV

Is My Child Ready For Kindergarten?
How do I know if my child is ready to start school?
What does my child need to know?
What is kindergarten testing?
What can I do to help better prepare my child?
What does my child need to know?
What is kindergarten testing?
What can I do to help better prepare my child?
A non-branded, community service event hosted by Emmanuel Christian School. The information that will be presented is meant to help parents of 4-5 year olds determine if their child is ready to begin as well as to help parents better prepare their children to start school. From our experience, the students who aren’t quite ready have a much harder time adjusting and excelling in the classroom, which can follow them throughout their school years. Taking time with a young child to make sure they feel confident when they start kindergarten is critically important to the student’s success in their first year and will create a foundational attitude toward school and learning as a result.
Date: Monday, March 2nd, 2015
Time: 6:30pm
Location: Emmanuel Christian School, 4607 Laskey Road, Toledo, Ohio 43623
