Every day educators are essential and the importance of their work cannot be emphasized enough. Now more than ever, it is important to protect and keep them in our minds, hearts and actions.
Below is a beautiful blessing from The Rev. Kristin Saylor:
O God, who came to dwell among us as a child – bless our children, and those who put their own safety at risk to care for them, especially the students and staff at our Community Preschool. As COVID-19 continues to threaten the fabric of our common life, grant our leaders wisdom and courage to prioritize the well-being of the most vulnerable in our midst, including early childhood educators. Amen.
Yoga is a practice and tradition that goes back over 5,000 years from South Asia. Since then it has diffused to be practiced all over the world with slight variations. Yoga is traditionally about spirituality and how it interacts with the body- you create harmony with your environment, mind and body which overall benefits your mental and physical health.
The program takes place 5 days a week for twelve months and serves children between the ages of three to five. The children are able to thrive in an environment that gives them individualized attention with a teaching ratio of one teacher for every 5 children. When you support the Community Preschool with a donation, you are supporting the strong foundation that allows these children to become positive forces in their communities and in the world.
