2024-01-15 18:00 - 19:00 (America/New_York) | Laurel Street Mennonite Church, 301 Laurel St, Lancaster, PA, 17603, United States
We believe the residents of Southwest Lancaster are closely connected to each other, celebrating the diversity of racial/ethnic backgrounds and sharing a sense of joint responsibility to care for one another.
The Neighborhood Connections Committee was built to bring the already close SoWe community even closer. Addressing the need for more community events, improving residents’ access to services and jobs; this committee hopes to encourage a shared sense of pride and responsibility in not only caring for the neighborhood but each other as well.
The Neighborhood Connections Committee meets every other month on the 3rd Monday at 6pm. Meetings are held at Laurel Street Mennonite Church. If you’re interested in joining this committee, email SoWe Coordinator Jacquie Morges at jacquie@wearetenfold.org.
