Open Door Ann Report 2016:Layout 1 OPEN DOOR COMMUNITY HOUSE, INC. Report 2015-2016 Annual LETTER FROM OUR BOARD CHAIR – CHRIS JONES Serving as the chair of the board of directors for Open Door Community House over the last year was the most impactful year that I’ve spent serving on the board. Not only was I able to see firsthand the Report work of God in lives to empower impoverished people in our community but I was able to serve alongside a staff dedicated to seeing each person served to reach their full potential as children of God. Our vision is to eliminate poverty in our community and the staff and the board at Open Door Community House serves diligently daily to see that vision become reality. Annual In 1935, the Open Door ministries began by offering safe afterschool care for children in the community. Eighty one years later, we are still offering quality afterschool care for children in need. The Mathews Promise Academy continues to serve children and youth living in families of very low income, most earning less than $10,000 a year. We always have space for children residing in local homeless shelters, as well. Focusing on reading development and academic enrichment, the children are reading above grade level and succeeding academically. I love that we also focus on the spiritual development of our children, offering daily devotions and Bible Study. In the full-day Summer Academy Program, we offer a full week of Vacation Bible School, usually in partnership with a church willing to share of their time and resources. The Circles in Columbus initiative is a part of a national movement to end poverty. As we continue to grow and expand this movement we need volunteers to serve as Allies to build intentional relationships with persons currently living in poverty as they implement their personal plans to move beyond. The successes we are seeing in Circles are remarkable as families create a firm foundation to move beyond poverty and I have been blessed seeing the fruits of this movement. From ministries for persons experiencing homelessness to senior adults needing social connections to be less isolated and lonely, Open Door provides compassionate care for persons who need to know Christ’s love. Through ten different ministries, we open doors of faith, hope and opportunity, a commitment we have made to this community for 81 years. Although our programs and services have grown through the years, we have never lost sight of the power of relationships and the unique value of every individual. 1 For the last six years I have been blessed to serve alongside phenomenal men and women to make up the board of directors for Open Door Community House. The passion each individual board member has to see each program ministry succeed to fulfill the mission of Open Door Community House has been special to be a part of. On behalf of each of us, we are grateful for the many community partnerships that help us serve effectively. Churches, United Methodist Women, businesses, foundations, civic groups and others provide vital volunteer and financial support. We also are blessed with a tremendous staff that embraces our mission and serves each day making life better for all that come through our open door. Thank you for your support! I personally invite you to come take a tour with us and see for yourself the impact that the Open Door ministries are making as we help our neighbors create long-term solutions to poverty. You won’t be sorry that you did. 2 LETTER FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR – KIM E. JENKINS “Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in Report the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.” Ephesians 3:20-21 Several years ago I was asked, “What is your favorite word and why?” I did not have to think for very long about the answer. Annual My favorite word is HOPE. Hope is my favorite word for many reasons. It keeps our focus on that toward which God is drawing us. It is the foundation of faith. Hope is living with a sense of expectancy and assurance that God is and forever will be. It is the peacefulness of knowing that we live in the gift of grace. This year has been a year of great hope, of expecting God to create opportunity, and of observing God’s handiwork in every person we encountered. We’ve seen dreams realized for individuals and families and for our organization. Truly, we live in the gift of grace. For 81 years, Open Door Community House has had the great privilege of walking alongside others in need of knowing hope or needing hope restored. We have seen families reunite, children achieve academic success, women move into productive work earning livable wages, and a community embrace with love those who need to believe that love still exists in this world. I am grateful for God’s grace and that you have faithfully served God and your neighbor by showing mercy, offering grace, and pursuing justice through partnership with the ministries of Open Door. Open Door is firmly committed to long-term relationships for lifelong transformation for people living in poverty. Your commitment to provide for and engage with the Open Door ministries creates opportunities for people to learn, grow, create change, and have a future story with a new outcome. By allowing us to have resources necessary to create a safe space, a place where people can take a deep breath and allow God to move into their lives, 3 thousands of people across our community are finding HOPE again. By God’s grace, HOPE is restored. In this report, you will see that many people have participated with the Open Door ministries and have created a new future story. Their hope has been restored. By God’s grace we will continue to see lives transformed in the coming year. Your continued partnership in prayer is vital. We have great things on the horizon and are grateful to friends like you who pray with us for dreams to come true. We are excited about what God is doing in our community and through the Open Door ministries. We look forward to continuing this journey with you. Thank you for sharing God’s love through your faithful support of Open Door. 4 AnnualReport MINISTRY STATISTICS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2015-2016 CIRCLES IN COLUMBUS Circles in Columbus is a city-wide initiative to create thriving families and thriving communities free of poverty.

  • Bloody, Bloody Yazoo Jackson
    P a g e | 1 Andrew Edwards Mae Ngai/Elizabeth Blackmar Senior Thesis Word Count: 20,121 4.4.2011 Bloody, Bloody Yazoo Jackson The Crisis over Speculation and Sovereignty in the Early Republic P a g e | 2 “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” ~The Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1791. In the broadest sense, political struggles between republicans and federalists in the earliest years of the American republic were about a trade-off between freedom and power. According to early Chief Justice John Marshall republicans resisted ―every attempt to transfer from their own hands into those of congress powers which by others,‖ Marshall‘s federalists, ―were deemed essential to the preservation of the union.‖1 Conversely, as republican newspaper editor and poet Philip Freneau wrote in 1793, ―the people rejoice in their freedom, and are determined to maintain it.‖2 Yet those two concepts, freedom and power, so familiar from history and manifest in the political discourse of George Washington and John Adams‘s administrations, remain opaque. The antagonisms of freedom and power are so broadly understood that contradictory interpretations can be made from the same evidence. Charles Beard interpreted the political divide of the 1790s as ―a profound division‖ that ―ensued throughout the United States based on different views of the rights of property,‖ with capitalist federalists on one side and agrarian republicans on the other.3 As Joyce Appleby reinterpreted them, however, republicans were ―progressive,‖ ―capitalist,‖ ―new money‖ men, who had no patience for the aristocratic pretentions of the ―elites,‖ while ―elite‖ federalists were, perhaps, just better organized.4 For 1 Marshall quoted by Beard.

  • 'O'er Mountains and Rivers': Community and Commerce
    MCCARTNEY, SARAH ELLEN, Ph.D. ‘O’er Mountains and Rivers’: Community and Commerce in the Greenbrier Valley in the Late Eighteenth Century. (2018) Directed by Dr. Greg O’Brien. 464 pp. In the eighteenth-century Greenbrier River Valley of present-day West Virginia, identity was based on a connection to “place” and the shared experiences of settlement, commerce, and warfare as settlers embraced an identity as Greenbrier residents, Virginians, and Americans. In this dissertation, I consider the Greenbrier Valley as an early American place participating in and experiencing events and practices that took place throughout the American colonies and the Atlantic World, while simultaneously becoming a discrete community and place where these experiences formed a unique Greenbrier identity. My project is the first study of the Greenbrier Valley to situate the region temporally within the revolutionary era and geographically within the Atlantic World. For many decades Greenbrier Valley communities were at the western edge of Virginia’s backcountry settlements in what was often an “ambiguous zone” of European control and settlers moved in and out of the region with the ebb and flow of frontier violence. Settlers arriving in the region came by way of the Shenandoah Valley where they traveled along the Great Wagon Road before crossing into the Greenbrier region through the mountain passes and rivers cutting across the Allegheny Mountains. Without a courthouse or church, which were the typical elements of community in eighteenth- century Virginia society, until after the American Revolution, Greenbrier settlers forged the bonds of their community through other avenues, including the shared hardships of the settlement experience.

  • Brevet Brigadier General George Mathews. 343 BEEVET BEIGADIEE
    Brevet Brigadier General George Mathews. 343 BEEVET BEIGADIEE GENERAL GEOEGE MATHEWS. A welcome addition to our very slender stock of in- formation relating to the biography of this officer of the Eevolutionary War is contained in the accompanying papers, in the handwriting of Col. Thomas Eodney, who was a member of the Continental Congress and, in later years, Judge of the U. S. Court for the territory of Mississippi. They were purchased at the recent sale, in Philadelphia, of the correspondence of Caesar, Thomas, and CaBsar A. Rodney. George Mathews served in the Indian Warfare in Virginia prior to the Eevolutionary War; was ap- pointed Colonel of the Ninth Virginia Regiment, Feb- ruary 10,1777; and was wounded and taken prisoner at Germantown, October 4, 1777. He was not exchanged until Dec. 5,1781. He then joined Gen. Greene's army in the South, as Colonel of the Third Virginia Eegi- ment, and continued in Service until the close of the War. As to the character of this service we are not informed. Eemoving, with his family, to Georgia in 1785, he was a representative from that State to the first Congress held under the Constitution of the United States; and served as Governor of Georgia from 1793 to 1796. He died at Augusta, Ga., on August 30, 1812, aged 73 years. It is evident from the statements made by Eodney in these papers that Gen. Mathews visited the Mississippi Territory—presumably Natchez—for the purpose of seeing his Son, whom President Jefferson had ap- pointed a Judge of one of the IT.

Since the 3d edition of the Gazetteer of Georgia was published, in 1837, some forty new counties have been organized, making the whole number 132. True, since that date Rev. George White* has issued two statistical works; but as great changes have been made, a new edition of the Gazetteer is demanded. The census of 1859 has not been included, because it was not complete at first, as published by the Comptroller General, in the hope that the enumeration of 1860 would be out in time for this work. The papers will print it as early as pos sible, and when desired can be pasted upon the inside cover of this book. The Railroad routes, with the distances from place to place on the rude maps, will be a great convenience to travellers, and furnish all the information necessary in the cars.
