On October 15, 2011, Clarkston First Baptist Church hosted around 30 sophomores and juniors working with Youth Leadership DeKalb. The group gathered to hear presentations given by organizations around the Clarkston community. With the theme of “Healthy Communities,” the church extended their hospitality by providing a great-tasting, healthy breakfast for everyone.
Next, each organization presented a brief picture of how their organization works toward building a healthy community in Clarkston. The organizations in attendance included,
- Clarkston First Baptist Church Community Development Center
- Clarkston Community Center
- World Relief
- Clarkston Development Foundation
We are so grateful to Clarkston First Baptist Church for the invitation to participate and engage this great group of leaders in and around our community. We wish all the Youth Leadership DeKalb participants the very best in the rest of the year and look forward to working alongside them in the community!
