23 Oct '18

Wonderful to see Highland Park neighbor and St. Andrean Sloane Davidson among those honored in Pittsburgh Magazine's annual "40 Under 40" program! As founder and executive director of "Hello Neighbor!" Sloane is one of the really great young leaders making a difference in our city and region. https://www.pittsburghmagazine.com/Pittsburgh-Magazine/October-2018/40-Unde… Perfect timing, then, and as a reminder: Sloane Davidson is also this year's Keynote Speaker for the 21st Annual St. Andrew's Lecture. Her presentation on the "Sojourners Among Us" will address the local "in our neighborhood" expression of the global refugee crisis. Public policy, personal transformation and awareness, and opportunities for all of us to learn more and get involved ourselves. The Lecture is this Friday evening, October 26, at 8 p.m., at St. Andrew's Church, 5801 Hampton Street, Highland Park. Free and open to all. A festive reception honoring Sloane and welcoming some of the guests she will be bringing with her will follow the Lecture. Please join us -- and if you know someone else who might be interested, feel free to forward the invitation!

FOCUS Pittsburgh, located in the Hill District, is part of a national movement through the Orthodox Church, that helps to fight poverty in communities across America. One of their areas in need is keeping their food pantry stocked with food and supplies. Currently, their shelves are empty and they need help. The above attachment highlights what they need. It could change on a monthly basis, at which point that need will be communicated. FOCUS Pittsburgh has been in the Hill since 2011. Each week, hundreds of backpacks are distributed to children in the Hill and Southside Public Schools. They offer an 8-week professional development class that teaches non-technical job skills to promote employment and success in the workplace. Bag lunches are distributed every Saturday through the Churches....140 lunches to be exact. In 2014, they opened a free medical and behavioral health clinic for people who are uninsured or who don't qualify for medical assistance. Most recently, they have purchased an RV, trained dozen of volunteers, and have formed a trauma response team -- responding to homicides in Allegheny County by providing on-site psychological and mental health care to residents affected by violence. In advance, thank you for your consideration.

Meet in the Chapel by 8 a.m. for an hour of yoga focused on developing flexibility, balance, and strength. All levels are welcome! Please bring your mat and wear comfortable clothing.
