CUTB News and Updates Church Under The Bridge Receives Govenor's Award
It was a very proud day for Church Under The Bridge and all of its 1000 plus volunteers. This was the 14th year under the direction of the Kentucky Commission on Community Volunteerism (KCCVS) that this awards program offered a glimpse into the lives and achievments of Kentuckians who serve without expectation of compensation, recognition, or commendation. Recognizing those whose volunteer service contributes immeasurably to a better Kentucky.
Church Under The Bridge volunteers received this Governor's Award under the "Faith-Based Group" category. This Governor's award is to specifically thank all the many dedicated volunteers of Church Under The Bridge for their contribution to the community, and their ministering to the physical and spiritual needs of the homeless and marginally housed living in the inner city of Lexington.
This award was accepted for the volunteers of Church Under The Bridge in Frankfort, Kentucky by the CUTB Board Chair, Stella Kidd. Stella wants all of the volunteers of Church Under the Bridge and the many Churches that now rotate Sundays through the year to join her in this award, and for all involved to feel as gratefull and proud as she does to be part of such an amazing and ever giving "Faith Based organization", doing what our Lord asked us to do, "be my hands on earth".
CONGRATULATIONS CUTB VOLUNTEERS !!
