This week we've hosted Cats for Christ, Manhattan KS and St. Matthew's UMC, Madison MS. It was great having St. Matthew's return again. We value leadership development and see the fruits of the program there. It is great to watch as former participants return as leaders.
All around, it has been an incredible week of serving, sharing, learning and worshiping together.

The Providence Effect on DOOR
Becky, our semester student, is interning at Providence St Mel. Providence St Mel is a school that has a long history first as a Catholic school then as a neighborhood owned school in East Garfield Park. PSM works to illustrate black history, organization, and care for students. In December, the Department of Education recognized Providence St. Mel for its work with successful students. A documentary was also made about the school, entitled The Providence Effect. Click here to see a trailer for the film, The Providence Effect.
DOOR is thankful to the school and especially Becky’s supervisor, Joan Gerig, for being such a large part of the DOOR semester in Chicago.
