SLC 2008

Here is some rough footage from last year's Streetwise Leadership Class in NE PDX. It'll be used for promotion of the 2009 series of classes. Hope you enjoy meeting some of my students.

Obviously, something went wrong when it was encoded or uploaded or something, but you'll get the general idea.

Streetwise Leadership Class

On Wednesday nights I leave work and drive from Tualatin to North Portland to head up a mentoring class. Kids from 9-15 years old from the community meet in a room graciously provided for us free of charge by the Housing Authority of Portland.

SLC is a Biblically-based class for youth in the low income areas that covers basic life issues: integrity, truth, wisdom, potential, service. We have group discussions, play games, and have short lectures and/or illustrations on a particular topic each week. The class averages about 8 young people. And, yes, it does get wild on occasion.
