Our 14th annual Ragtime Extravaganza will be different, but no less amazing! We'll be celebrating America's 250th anniversary by partnering with the City of Adrian's First Friday event on Friday, July 3rd. Join us at 8PM at the First Presbyterian Church on Maumee St. in downtown Adrian for a concert of great American music. You'll hear the roots of our nation's popular music with works by Ernest Hogan, Scott Joplin, Irving Berlin, George M. Cohan, and more! After the concert, you'll enjoy the fireworks overhead from Comstock Park. Made possible in part by generous support from the Michigan Arts and Culture Council and a grant from Walmart Spark Good.

Our Junior Servants hosted a sweatshirt drive to share with the kids at Boys & Girls Club of Lenawee. We are so grateful that they are keeping mission work on their minds and in their hearts. Thank you to our congregation for your support. And thank you to the Boys and Girls Club of Lenawee CEO Sara Herriman for joining our service Sunday and accepting our donations.

We are so grateful for the middle school youth at the First Presbyterian Church of Adrian and their incredible donation drive to support our Club! 💙

Our CEO, Sara Herriman, was honored to join their Sunday service to accept the items on behalf of our Club and the young people we serve. Moments like this remind us what community looks like, showing up, giving generously, and caring for our kids.

If you or your organization would like to support the Boys & Girls Club of Lenawee, we’d love to connect. Call us at 517-266-9775 or message us on Facebook or Instagram anytime. Thank you for helping us make a difference!

Saturday, January 17th 6pm JOIN US!

Dr. Scott Elliott & Guest Panel from Local Community Organizations are hosting a Film Screening and Discussion on the feature length documentary "Evicting the American Dream"

Where: First Presbyterian Church of Adrian
156 E. Maumee St. – Adrian, MI 49221
*Downtown across from the Police Station / Library*
Parking is available on the streets, behind the church in the church lot, and the city public lot.
When: Saturday, January 17, 6p-8p.

Evicting the American Dream amplifies the voices and stories of children and families confronting eviction and homelessness. Through additional interviews with pediatric psychologists, social workers, tenant rights organizations, housing authority officials, and eviction lawyers, this film explores the root causes and systemic issues that perpetuate this epidemic.

Watch the Trailer Here:

Often when we hear the words ‘homelessness’ and ‘eviction’, there is a dominant narrative that says: “There is nothing we can do to prevent this from happening.” This film seeks to reframe, humanize, and transform how the wider public understands eviction and homelessness and the ways in which this is preventable.
