As a believer, I gain great peace in the knowledge that my Lord and Savior is the Great Sustainer, despite my limitations and failures. He keeps His promises to us and in Him, we succeed. In Him, we can start or stop anything. In Him, we have strength.

As God’s children, we have both the ultimate justice and the best place of belonging in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Each of us is known to Him—we are known before we are born into this world and in every circumstance after until we are called Home. Each hair on our heads is known to God. What a staggering concept that is—that we are known, continuously and at that level of detail, by the Maker of Heaven and Earth.

This June, we focused on how we are engaging with and empowering our community. We highlighted educational opportunities for our neighbors to ask questions and learn more from our attorneys; we hosted a series of Virtual Trivia Nights as a fun way to support pro bono legal services for marginalized people; and we shared important messages and updates for our followers on community resources.

Creative Engagement Coordinator Ashley Caveda recently had the opportunity to interview our brand-new executive director, Amy Horton.

This March, we highlighted our Low Income Taxpayer Clinic. We featured stories of our clients, volunteers, and staff; shared information on where to get free help with completing your taxes; and gave you important tips and updates on how to avoid common scams.

After much careful and prayerful consideration, it is our great pleasure to announce the appointment of our new executive director: Amy Horton! Last autumn, our board of directors formed a search committee tasked with finding an experienced leader familiar with legal systems and possessing strong nonprofit management skills to advance the work of Neighborhood Christian Legal Clinic. Amy Horton is that leader.
