Loading...St. George’s Community Center announced they will host the annual ‘One May Night’ prayer service to celebrate 50 years of youth programming in West Louisville. On May 18, 2014, from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., leaders from the Episcopal Diocese of Kentucky will join with the community to offer prayers for continued success of the organization.
Today, St. George's thrives as one of the premier youth development agencies in West Louisville. Its programming has transformed the center from a "recreational hangout," where youngsters come for basketball and talent shows, into a thriving and educational environment for the youth of surrounding neighborhoods.
This service will be held at St. George’s Episcopal Church, located at 1205 South 26th Street on May 18 from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. with a light reception to follow. The community is encouraged to attend.
The Reverend Charles Tachau, former leader of St. George’s Community Center, will be honored at the event. Tachau was instrumental to the reopening of the Center in 1964 and remains to be a positive influence on the success of the community center.
Founded in 1964, St. George’s Community Center offers several afterschool programs designed to prepare West Louisville youth in grades 4-12 for college and post secondary endeavors. Their mission is to launch youth into flights of self-discovery by impacting their lives for the benefit of the community. www.stgeorgeslouisville.episcopalky.org.
