Yesterday our seniors took downtown Montgomery by storm, visiting the Rosa Parks Museum, the First White House of the Confederacy, the Archives, the Civil Rights Memorial Center, and the Freedom Riders Memorial. After their five-hour whirlwind tour, they returned to St. John’s Episcopal Church to present their community action project proposals to their parents and their Bridge Builder peers. The mission of Bridge Builders Alabama is to develop among high school students a group of future leaders who wil...

Looks like rain here at Huntingdon. Folklore claims that sprinkly skies are a good sign on wedding days, and I believe the luck extends to leadership conferences as well. Last year, during induction, a huge storm blew up, tore down tree limbs and pounded like a construction tool on the roof of Ligon Chapel. And somehow, Bridge Builders Alabama had a fantastic year. Maybe it was the students, or the people I work with, or just blind luck. If only it were that easy…. Here will be days when they’ll ne...

Ldquo;Love in any language. Straight from the heart. Pulls us all together,. And once we learn to speak it. All the world will hear. Love in any language. Fluently spoken here.”. Day 2 is winding down here at the 2011 Bridge Builders Alabama Junior Conference. All eight color groups had busy days today: acid rivers, trust falls, electric fences, buckets of dreams, and so much more.

Each night we plan fun activities for our new Bridge Builders. After all, they spend most of the day in the sun lifting boards, catching friends, and getting frustrated, or in the classroom debating issues surrounding leadership, stereotypes, and prejudice. So at night we just like them to relax… Sort of. We’ve really got a great bunch of students this year. Even with no crystal ball or fortune-telling talent, I can positively predict a fantastic year for Bridge Builders Alabama… But ton...The mission of...
