Event Details
The LPSH on March 29th at 1pm will feature Nekeisha Alayna Alexis, a Trinidad-native turned New Yorker who now calls Elkhart, Indiana, home. She lives by the motto "liberation for every body," and dedicates each area of her life to this pursuit, including in her creative endeavors. She received her Bachelor of Arts Degree from New York University and her Masters of Arts Degree from Anabaptist Mennonite Biblical Seminary, where she’s worked for the past 18 years. Nekeisha will read Mae Among the Stars by Roda Ahmed. This is an ALL-AGES story hour, meaning all are welcome to come experience this moving, incredibly important book.
This is open and free to the general public but registration requested.
The LPSH is not a fundraiser, it’s a consciousness raiser! Ruthmere invites a member of the community to read an age-appropriate children’s book to children and their families. But this is a story hour with a specific purpose. These stories are reflections of each reader’s distinct background, and communicate the values of diversity, unity and liberty.
Every child receives a Lincoln Penny souvenir in a keepsake jacket as a reminder of why this experience is important.
This LPSH Event Sponsor is Centier Bank.
