CLOUT Nehemiah Assembly

CLOUT Crowd 2
Originally uploaded by paynehollow

CLOUT (Citizens of Louisville Organized and United Together) had their largest and perhaps most successful meeting ever tonight. I haven't heard official numbers, but it would appear that well over 1,000 people met together to ask our local leaders to meet with us to develop and implement a plan for implementing Justice.

Our two issues tonight were to get eligible children enrolled in KCHIP (a children's healthcare plan) and to stop the closing of five swimming pools in our poorer neighborhoods. We got enthusiastic agreements from all officials involved.

Man! What a night!

God has told you, O man, what is good;
And what does the LORD require of you
But to
do justice,
to love kindness,
And to walk humbly with your God?

~Micah 6:8
