Faith Community Planning Committee Scheduled

GREENSBORO, NC (February 6, 2008) – City Council member Goldie Wells has scheduled the initial meeting of the Planning Committee of the District 2 faith community on Wednesday, February 13, from 10 am to 12 noon. The meeting will take place in the Fellowship Hall, Evangel Fellowship Church of God in Christ, 2007 E. Cone Boulevard.

The goal of the Planning Committee is to develop strategies and a plan of action to help reduce youth violence and gang activity in Greensboro through the efforts of the faith community.
 
“Last month’s faith community meeting was quite successful, and many concerned residents agreed to continue with our efforts,” Wells said. “Public input is vital to ensure that our community prevails, and I am asking now that you continue to serve your community.”
