Why Fresno Churches Need to be Connected for Lasting Impact

September 29, 2023 Ashley Goldsmith , , ,
Why Fresno Churches Need to be Connected for Lasting Impact

Fresno has the highest concentrated poverty rate in California, 8 in 10 students are struggling to read at grade level, and many families are experiencing food insecurity.

For those who are led by the teachings of Jesus, apathy and non action are not viable responses to these realities.

“[If you believe] that everybody [is] made in the image of God…You have to care about the people who live next door!

Joe White, Pastor of Neighborhood Church

But where does a church begin to address this issue? How can a church address the struggles our city faces in a lasting, meaningful way?

Put simply, they can’t. Not alone.

What does 15-years of partnership look like?

This year, Every Neighborhood Partnership (ENP) is celebrating our 15-year anniversary. 

As we reflect on the incredible people who have helped us grow, clarified our vision, and partnered with us since the beginning, there aren’t adequate words to express our gratitude. So we’re going to let these thoughts from the ENP team and our partners say it all.

Sabbatical Reflections

Sabbatical Reflections

I am back. You may not have known, but I took a 9-week sabbatical. Wanted to share publically a couple of reflections, learning lessons, and some takeaways.

General Reflections:

Just want to start off with a big thank you. This sabbatical could only be possible because of the staff, board, and community that supports ENP. This is a new practice for us as an organization and the first time for me. Because of such a professional, knowledgeable, and trustworthy staff, I could leave knowing that things would be handled. Thank you.

The 1 sentence summary is… that I had a lot of fun with my family, deepened the focus on my marriage, learned more about myself, and put into place some spiritual practices that can help anchor me in the next season of work at ENP and life in general.

See you in 9 weeks.

“Most of us are more tired than we know at the soul level. We are teetering on the brink of dangerous exhaustion, and we cannot do anything else until we have gotten some rest…we can’t really engage [any spiritual disciplines] until solitude becomes a place of rest for us rather than another place for human striving and hard work.”
― Ruth Haley Barton, Sacred Rhythms: Arranging Our Lives for Spiritual Transformation

If you email me from Thursday, June 15th till Monday, August 21st, you will get an away message.

I am on a sabbatical.

What the heck is a sabbatical?

Why Every School in Fresno Needs a Garden

April 24, 2023 Ashley Goldsmith , , ,
Why Every School in Fresno Needs a Garden

Fresno community members were ranked the 3rd most food insecure in the United States according to a 2018 report from the Food Research & Action Center. Many families in Southwest Fresno live in “food deserts,” meaning there is no ready access to affordable, healthy food. A lack of access to and education about healthy, readily-available food contributes to significant and detrimental health effects such as obesity, diabetes, asthma, and autoimmune disorders. 

Children are among the most vulnerable community members, and limited access to nutritious foods and education about healthy living make them more susceptible to poor health conditions.

A more hopeful reality is playing out on a sunny afternoon at Kepler Neighborhood School, where nine first-graders sit on the edge of their very own school garden boxes, giggling as they chomp on home-grown celery.

To address food disparity and support children in our city’s areas of highest need, Every Neighborhood Partnership is partnering with King Elementary and Kepler Neighborhood School to design and implement a pilot Edible School Garden project. ENP is working to expand the program to include a garden at every one of our after-school program sites by next school year!
