Inside Sojourn is a podcast hosted by Bobby Gilles that explores everything Sojourn from the wisdom in Easter egg hunts to baby dedications to what leadership at Sojourn looks like.  This week on the podcast, Bobby interviews Steve Leach, an active member of Sojourn who has recently moved into Shelby Park and is mobilizing the community groups in the area to love their neighbors.  I encourage you to listen to the podcast, where you will hear Steve talk about how you can get more involved in the Seed ministry at Sojourn, as well as some concrete ways to get to know your neighbors better.

This Saturday, April 3, at noon Steve will be leading volunteers into Shelby Park for a prayer walk and a street clean-up, an initiative of the Shelby Park Makeover (You can read more about this initiative here).  The clean-up will meet at 615 Camp St. (Steve’s home), head out into the neighborhood, and meet back after the clean-up for pizza.  Members of Sojourn and Immanuel Baptist Church who live in Shelby Park (or who just want to love on that neighborhood) will join together and display their love for their community.  Anyone who happens to be on the streets that day will be invited to join the group and help in the clean-up.  The street clean-up is a beautiful way for the body of Christ to visibly display Christ’s desire for renewal, and to invite those in the community to join in.

This event is for you:

• If you have wanted to get involved in Shelby Park but don’t know how
• If you live in Shelby Park and want to meet some other Sojourners and Immanuel members in the neghborhood
• If you want to see renewal in the city of Louisville

To sign up for the clean-up, go to the City.  If you have any questions about the street clean-up or want to find out more information about how you can get involved in Shelby Park, email steveleach729@gmail.com.
