Hamline Church Women/United Methodist Women host UMW Sunday on Sunday, January 21. This year’s guest speaker is Rose Santos, principal of LEAP Academy in our neighborhood. LEAP is dedicated to serving students who are new to the United States and are learning English while earning a high school diploma. As an alternative high school, LEAP enrolls students up to age 20 and provides an educational opportunity for students whose needs often do not match the offerings provided in traditional high schools. This ties with UMW studies of immigration. Learn more about the school at https://www.spps.org/leap.

We will serve our traditional soup and bread luncheon and have a bread and used books sale. We need women to serve as ushers and greeters, and men and women to work in the kitchen.
