Rescue at Sea

If you would be interested in being a part of the Open Spirit Gallery Planning Team, or just helping out with the gallery, you are invited to a meeting at the church tonight, Thursday, October 2nd, at 6:00pm.
ZoomUganda shares the journey of 12 girls from the Uganda village of Matale, who were given 12 cameras and 24 hours in which to tell their own stories through their own lenses. A Photovoice project directed by Julie Resnick of Portland, Oregon, ZoomUganda empowered its participants to stand in the centers of their world and show you the view from there. On Thursday, October 30th, at 7:00pm, Julie and her Nike colleague, Noella Nalujjuna (who grew up in Matale) will speak at an event open to the public here at ChristChurch.
