Immanuel recently completed its participation in the Just One Youth (JOY) Program this summer in working with Mayor Jim Strickland of the City of Memphis and the Memphis Office of Youth Services, whereby Memphis businesses and churches were challenged to each employ and work closely with a youth during a six-week period.  Jordan Denton, who will be a senior at Ridgeway High School this year, worked with a sense of purpose and accomplished much in facilities and information technology at Immanuel Lutheran Church during this time.  Special thanks to Ryan Pudwell for mentoring and working with Jordan!  Immanuel was honored to support the Memphis community by working with Mayor Strickland and others to provide work opportunities to our city youth during the summer.
