Podcasts about Neighborhood House

Hope isn't just for Easter Sunday—it's a rhythm we're invited to live into every day. But in times like these, how do we hold onto hope—and bring it to our congregations and communities? In the first episode of our new season of Transforming Engagement: the Podcast, host Rev. Dr. Seth Thomas sits down with Dr. Mark Lloyd Taylor, author of So Fill Our Imaginations: The Work and Play of a Year in Preaching, to explore what it truly means to preach hope. Together, they explore the paradox of hope: while we may not always see it, we are called to be it. Dr. Taylor connects this to the Episcopal baptismal covenant, emphasizing commitments to justice, service, and stewardship. A recent addition to the covenant—caring for God's creation—highlights the importance of concrete action in our faith. Dr. Taylor shares how the Godly Play early childhood education method can inspire a more interactive and imaginative approach to preaching. He offers practical ways to invite your congregation into the process—not just through words, but through visuals and the physical space around you. Whether you preach from the pulpit or live your faith in everyday moments, this conversation will inspire you to cultivate attentiveness, deepen your engagement, and bring hope to the communities you serve. About This Season, “Reimagining Preaching”: This season, we're exploring how the church can proclaim the good news in our time by reimagining preaching. Host Seth Thomas is joined by experts in the preaching craft—leaders who think deeply and dream boldly about how we can bring a liberated witness to the pulpit and the world. Listener Resources: Each episode of this season, our guest spotlights an organization making a positive impact, In this episode, Dr. Taylor shares the work of St. Elizabeth Episcopal Church, which houses the Neighborhood House, an early learning center, in Burien, Washington.

I grew up in the late 80s and 90s. Back then, things were a lot simpler. There weren't any smartphones, and the internet was nonexistent. It didn't feel as fast-paced and loud as it is today. Thinking back to childhood, I remember playing outside a lot and having sleepovers at my girlfriends' houses on the weekends after we picked out a movie at the local Blockbuster store. Life was pretty sweet. I hope that's how everyone feels about their childhood. But maybe I was young, naive, and oblivious to the worries that adults face. Or maybe I was just really lucky that nothing scary had happened to me at that point in my life. Today, I feel like we have so much more information available at our fingertips. We can know what's going on in every part of the world instantly on our phones. While this technology is amazing, it can also be overwhelming. There is no denying that we all know so much more about the world and what can and does happen to people (good and bad) daily. It has shed light on many things we may have never known. For instance, how we've lately seen headlines about terrible things happening to children during sleepovers. It's upsetting and disturbing and causing parents to debate their kids having sleepovers entirely. Today's guest, Kristin Andrus, is extremely passionate about this topic. Her family has one big rule: They don't allow their children to have sleepovers. Some people disagree wholeheartedly with this rule, while others agree with her stance because they, too, know of scary stories that can happen and have happened during sleepovers. We had Kristin share her thoughts and experiences advocating for children on the show. Who is Kristin Andrus? Kristin Andrus is a philanthropist and community champion who advocates for women, children, and refugees within and beyond Utah. Kristin is the driving force behind the impactful Building Bridges non-profit/philanthropy partnership. She also serves as a board member for the Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Intermountain Area and for UnDEfeated, an organization serving underprivileged youth and single mothers in Uganda. In addition, she holds advisory roles with the First Lady of Utah, Neighborhood House, the Younique Foundation, Utah Valley University, and Women Who Succeed. She is a community activator who believes in building bridges and bringing people together to help communities thrive! Nonprofits count on Kristin for her social media and marketing savvy and supernatural ability to get stuff done. She is also the Chief Culture Officer of her husband and six children and an incredible cook! What Did We Discuss? In this episode, we chat with Kristin Andrus about the great sleepover debate — should you or should you not allow your kids to do sleepovers — and how to make the best decision for your family when it comes to sleepovers. This is a very big and passionate conversation. While some of my favorite childhood memories were sleepovers at my girlfriends' houses, hearing Kristin's stories and the stats made me rethink how I might approach this topic with my kids when they reach the age of being invited to sleepovers. This episode really gives us parents information that we need to know and new things to consider. I wonder, where do you stand on this great sleepover debate? Share your thoughts in the comments!

DEREK MILLER: This is Derek Miller, Speaking on Business. You may have heard that the NBA All Star Game is coming to Utah, bringing in over 100,000 visitors to the state. Also coming with the big game is some big community support. Here is Tara Thue with AT&T to tell us more. TARA THUE: Utah has made strides in increasing broadband access. As president of AT&T Utah, I've seen hundreds of millions of dollars invested by our company alone to expand broadband in Utah – which doesn't even account for investment from other providers. Unfortunately, the problem remains: more than 3,300 K-12 students1 in the Salt Lake area alone don't have access to the internet, computers or the skills needed to benefit from being online, an issue known as the digital divide. That's why AT&T worked with Human-I-T and local organizations to distribute 325 laptops to those who need help connecting. The Salt Lake Education Foundation, Latinos in Action, Promise South Salt Lake, and Neighborhood House helped us identify students and families in need. Ahead of the NBA All-Star weekend in downtown Salt Lake, in addition to providing laptops, Human-I-T also provided tech support and talked about low-cost internet options made possible by the Affordable Connectivity Program or ACP. Mayor Mendenhall and other community leaders joined us for this powerful event, and we look forward to seeing these Utah families connect and thrive. Derek Miller: Its great to see companies stepping up to help our students bridge the digital divide. If you or someone you know is struggling to afford internet access, please visit affordableconnectivity.gov I'm Derek Miller with the Salt Lake Chamber, Speaking on Business.

Pete Rizzo spoke with Program Coordinator Rani Goldman about how The Neighborhood House is doing its part to help the community during National Suicide Prevention Month as well as provide information on the Annual Fall Fundraiser coming up.

Editor's note: The following story contains a derogatory term. Augustine “Augie” Garcia was born in St. Paul's west side in 1946. He lived in the West Side Flats until his family moved in 1959. By the time the neighborhood was torn down, Mexican immigrants had become one of the largest groups living in the West Side Flats. Despite the years, the memories of the West Side Flats as a vibrant and multiethnic community remain. Garcia is one of several gentlemen who regularly meet on Tuesday mornings at the Sunlight Restaurant in South St. Paul to talk and reminisce. The men are now in their 70s, 80s and 90s, but to look at them, you would be hard-pressed to guess their real ages.  Growing up in the West Side Flats, they knew of each other and decades later they would come together through mutual acquaintances. “The West Side Flats was a melting pot as far as I was concerned,” Garcia said. The West Side Flats was also home to other immigrants. Russian Jews began settling there in the 1880s. Courtesy of the Minnesota Historical Society Aerial view of the Flats, 1953, showing Robert, Wabasha, and railroad bridges and American Hoist and Derrick facilities. He also was quick to point out that he isn't that Augie Garcia. Courtesy of Minnesota Historical Society Musician Augie Garcia plays his guitar in 1954. The other Augie Garcia, who was also from the West Side Flats, is the man who came to be known as the godfather of Minnesota rock-and-roll. Augie Garcia died in 1999. But he is perhaps best-remembered for nearly upstaging Elvis Presley. In 1956, Elvis performed at the St. Paul Auditorium and the Augie Garcia Quintet was the opening act. News reports recount that Garcia whipped the crowd into such a frenzy that Elvis' manager had him pulled off the stage. Despite the passing years, Nick Arenas, who is in his 90s, still recalls the address where he grew up and the spot of the nearby businesses. “I lived at 167 Fairfield, I moved three times in the same block. On the corner of Fairfield and Eva was the New Ray Theater. And kitty corner to that was Our Lady of Guadalupe Church. Across the street from the theater was the Coronado Café,” Arenas said. Arenas still has fond memories of the Neighborhood House. It was founded in 1897 by women from the Mount Zion Temple. It initially opened to help Russian Jewish immigrants. Later it would be a place of assistance for all immigrants. The West Side Flats was its home for its first 65 years. “They had a woodshop downstairs in the basement of the Neighborhood House. I built my first pair of skis there,” Arenas said. Garcia said his family lived on State Street before leaving the Flats in 1959. His grandfather lived on Robertson until leaving a couple years later. “But there was only two houses on the block — my grandfather's house and the people who lived across the street,” Garcia said. Gallery Courtesy of the Minnesota Historical Society Our Lady of Guadalupe Church stood at 186 East Fairfield. Photo taken 1951. Courtesy of the Minnesota Historical Society St. Paul Hebrew Institute on Kentucky Street, 1921. Courtesy of the Minnesota Historical Society Lafayette School was on the corner of Kentucky and Fenton. It was the only public school in the Flats in 1921. Courtesy of the Minnesota Historical Society Students at Casa Coronado Restaurant, 154 East Fairfield, 1947. He also recalled going to Mass at Our Lady of Guadalupe on Sundays; and then stopping at the Jewish bakery. They'd buy horns and bagels and then go to his grandfather's to eat. “That's where I also learned how to eat rye bread and pumpernickel. But I did like bagels. And I was having bagels at a young age where most of the time people my age didn't know what a bagel was,” Garcia said. Frank Cruz, who is in his late 80s, also grew up and lived in the West Side Flats until they were forced to move. Cruz acknowledges some of the not-so-good memories. He doesn't shy away from talking about the discrimination Mexicans faced. Cruz recalled being 5, 6, 7 years old and how he and his siblings would head across the Robert Street bridge with a wagon in tow. They'd go to the warehouses to collect scrap metal. He said that on their way back down, people from the upper part of town would call them names. “They'd always be criticizing us to go back to Mexico, ‘wetbacks,' this and that, always had different name calling. But like you say, sticks and stones will break your bones, but words aren't going to hurt. But they do stick to your head,” Cruz said. The West Side Flats was not the only place where Mexican immigrants and other newcomers settled. Swede Hollow — as its name implies — was settled by Swedish immigrants in the 1850s. Both Swede Hollow and the West Side Flats welcomed immigrant newcomers during the same time period. Lena Norrman, a senior lecturer in Swedish at the University of Minnesota, has studied Swede Hollow. She said not much is written about Swede Hollow because people were working hard to simply survive. And they didn't have time to write down their memories, Norrman said. “It was difficult to find work at the time, especially for the first generation not knowing any English and trying to get into the labor market. So these are not the people who would write down the history,” she said. Courtesy of Minnesota Historical Society Swede Hollow, as it appeared about a century ago. The homes that made up Swede Hollow were shacks. There were no sewage lines. Outhouses were built over the creek. The early immigrants who settled in Swede Hollow had one goal, said Norrman. “The game was to move up to come to the street level. Because if you made it to the street level, then you could disappear into Minneapolis. So, if you started at the very bottom of the creek, that was the worst place ever to live,” Norrman said. In its nearly 100 years welcoming immigrants, Swede Hollow never had a sewer system. Citing unsanitary conditions, the city of St. Paul ordered the settlement to be burned down in 1956. Burning Swede Hollow Why an immigrant community deliberately went up in flames Courtesy of Minnesota Historical Society The burning of Swede Hollow in St. Paul, as photographed by the St. Paul Dispatch & Pioneer Press. Back across the river, residents of the West Side Flats would also face displacement. The community was built in a low-lying area that was prone to flooding. The city of St. Paul would eventually use this as a reason to demolish the neighborhood. A devastating flood hit the area in 1952. In 1956, the city announced it would build Riverview Industrial Park.  By 1962 the last families had left the West Side Flats. And to protect that industrial park, the city built a flood wall. Cruz has bitter memories about how much — or rather how little — the city paid families for their homes.  “They cheated you. The most people were getting was $6,000, 7,000 for their home,” Cruz said. Cruz said his brother fought that low-ball price. He recalled how his brother would see houses like his. He'd knock on the door and ask the homeowner the house's value. He'd also take a photo. His brother eventually went to court, Cruz said.  “The judge looks at him. He said, ‘How much do you want to give you?' $6,000. And the judge looked at him he says no, you give him $13,000,” Cruz said. There was a reason it wasn't higher, he said. “And the only reason he didn't go more because the city was already saying the reason they're chasing us out of here,” Cruz said. “It's because we live in wetland. It was all wet and all of a sudden 100 years later it's wetland.” Courtesy of the Minnesota Historical Society Tennessee Street in West Side Flats seen during a flood in 1952.

143:  Elevating Your Grants Program as a Nonprofit Leader (Autumn Keck)SUMMARYIs your overall fundraising plan built on a solid foundation of a comprehensive grant writing program?  If not, can you identify the vital readiness steps necessary to best prepare your organization for success?  In episode #143 of the Path Podcast, Autumn Keck, a fundraising expert with over two decades of experience in grant writing and major gifts solicitation, addresses these questions and more. She explains how best to present the strength of an organization and resist the urge to adjust your focus to “fit the mold” of a possible funder, just one of the key factors needed to bolster an organization's chance for grant funding.  As Patton discusses in his upcoming book, Your Path to Nonprofit Leadership releasing March 8th, professional development is a vital skill for the growth and success of every nonprofit leader.  Autumn expounds on this by discussing specific resources and training to enhance your fundraising and grant writing skills. Learn how to set realistic expectations among your organization's leaders and board around grant funding cycles and its impact on long term sustainable support. Like so many other sectors seeing a spike in remaining remote, nonprofit leaders are capitalizing on this shift by outsourcing such things as grant management where there's a potential utilization of higher talent at lower costs than retaining a full-time grant writer.ABOUT AUTUMNAutumn Keck is a fundraising expert with over 20 years of experience specializing in grant writing, major gift solicitation, and individual giving.  She began her fundraising career as Director of Development at Neighborhood House and then went on to work at the American University Washington College of Law, The JC Raulston Arboretum at North Carolina State University, and Girl Scouts of North Carolina Coastal Pines.  In 2010, she branched out as an independent grant writing consultant, which led to the formation of Scribe, LLC. As Founder and Principal Consultant of Scribe, LLC, a fundraising consulting firm specializing in grant management services, Autumn works to connect nonprofits to the philanthropic community by effectively sharing the organization's impact on the people they serve. Autumn and her team work closely with nonprofits to help them become grant ready, and grow their grant writing programs.  Scribe has helped raise millions of dollars by telling each organization's compelling story with a focus on their mission and community impact.Autumn is a graduate of North Carolina State University with a BA in Communications and a minor in Journalism. She serves on the Board of the Association of Fundraising Professionals, Charlotte Chapter as the Higher Education Chair and is also member of the Grants Professionals Association, and the Queen City chapter of Jack and Jill of America.

Matt George is the kindest man alive.   Don't believe me? Well, consider this. The Peoria, Illinois-based writer, speaker and CEO of the Children’s Home Association of Illinois is the former Executive Director of the Hult Center for Healthy Living and the former President and CEO of Youth Farm, which later merged with Children’s Home in 2007, under his leadership.   In addition to his work at Children’s Home, Matt helps raise funds for local nonprofits, including Neighborhood House, The Hult Center for Healthy Living, Crimestoppers and more.   But I know a lot more than Matt's resume. That's because my company published his #1 bestselling memoir/business book NonProfit Game Plan and so I had a front-row seat on his journey from behind-the-scenes rainmaker to public face.    In this episode, we discussed how a mentor played a crucial role in this transition, the way his book has changed his entire career and why he doesn't track book sales, among many other topics.   DO YOU WANT TO WRITE A MEMOIR?

At BankCherokee, we believe that community starts with family; I am proud to be the third generation of my family to lead our independently-operated bank and to continue the tradition of work my grandfather started nearly 100 years ago.I began my career at First National Bank of St. Paul and joined BankCherokee in 1983. I have served in many banking capacities. In my current role as president and CEO, I provide vision and direction for BankCherokee, ensuring the organization, our employees and the local small businesses we serve continue to thrive. Since moving into my leadership role in 1996, the bank’s assets have increased by nearly 75 percent.I am personally committed to being an innovator in the Twin Cities’ business community and the neighborhoods BankCherokee serves. My work has resulted in numerous local business and finance awards including Finance & Commerce “Top Women in Finance” award (2007), as well as Minnesota Business Magazine’s “The (Real) Power 50” award (2015).Giving back to the community is important to me as well. Over the years I have provided financial expertise and leadership to numerous nonprofit organizations. I served on the board of Neighborhood House on the west side of St. Paul; was board member, executive committee member and finance committee chair for United Way of St. Paul area; finance committee member for the Girl Scout Council of St. Croix Valley; and founding member, treasurer and president of the Rotary Club of West Saint Paul/Mendota Heights. Currently, I serve on the boards of Friends of the St. Paul Public Library, F. R. Bigelow Foundation and the Minnesota Bankers Association.

Today we’re speaking with Kirstin Chernawsky, Executive Director of Erie Neighborhood House, an organization with a history of serving immigrant families since 1870. That’s right, 1870! Kirstin began her tenure at Erie in 2013 as Senior Director of Development & Communications. In March of 2016, Erie’s board of directors named her executive director, making her just the ninth individual - and fourth woman - to serve in this capacity. In August 2016 Kirstin was named to the Crain's Leadership Academy, a cohort comprised of rising leaders in the nonprofit and business sectors. She also sits on the Board of the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights and Chicago Women in Philanthropy.

These comments are a little longer than usual. Today was my last Sunday at Jan Hus Presbyterian Church and Neighborhood House as Stated Supply Pastor. My comments used texts from Nehemiah, 1 Corinthians, Luke - and The Man of La Mancha (with a little rap included)! It is hard to leave this wonderful group of faithful friends and travelers. Still, the path is the path - and when it is time, no sense messing with kairos or kronos!
