The Narthex Youth Center provides something that our community desperately needed: a safe haven for students after school hours. I wish that more members of the community would support this fantastic center so that it could gain in popularity to serve more students and so that it could acquire more funding to keep students coming!!
Narthex has had its struggles in the past, but they are working really hard to continue to serve the youth of this community. As there is not much around here for the kids to do, Narthex provides them with a safe place to be, food to eat, and help with their homework all for free. They also help prepare them for the future, working with MCC to bring in workshops on college and job skills, and other fun activities.
