GRACE After School

In case you don't know, I am serving a 12-month term with AmeriCorps in the city of Buffalo, and my placement is the GRACE After School program, which is a ministry of the House of Grace. I work with students who live in this neighborhood, between 2nd and 7th grade, who are mostly refugees.

This week we are learning how to fuse glass, an ancient process that integrates global cultures, history, art and science.  Thanks to a friend and colleague who is a great artist and a mission team from Ithaca, we were able to make this great experience happen for my students.  Check out the photos on our blog!  There will be more photos to come by the end of the week.
