Dear Friends and Neighbors, 
I've recently become aware of plans to burn down an 1840 farmhouse in Maryland that is one of three in a row on Harriet Tubman's Underground Railroad.&nbsp; This particular&nbsp;house was never entered into the Historic Preservation, so as it stands right now, it is allowed to be burned down to build new homes.&nbsp;&nbsp; I've decided to create a petition of signatures to propel the Building office of Kent County to investigate the historical importance of this Maryland house before allowing it to be burned down,&nbsp;in hopes that they would halt the process altogether.&nbsp; Preservation Maryland has confirmed it is right on the "ceremonial route of the Underground Railroad." If you know of anyone who would like to add their signature, please tell them to go to &nbsp;<a href="https://www.change.org/SaveUndergroundRailroad" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">change.org/SaveUndergroundRailroad. </a><a href="https://www.change.org/SaveUndergroundRailroad" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank"></a> In addition to signing this petition, you can also call the Kent County planning Office at &nbsp;<a href="tel:(410)778-7423" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">(410)778-7423</a> and request that a demolition delay be filed for an assessment of historical importance be conducted on property 33740 Sassafras Caldwell Rd., Galena, MD 21635. In light of pride month and the current political environment that is stripping us of all our rights, it is my hope that I can win this battle and it can serve a small ray of hope in maintaining our country's diversity.&nbsp; We will only succeed united as one. With gratitude,&nbsp;Natalie

St. Francis of Assisi American National Catholic Church

Ryan Hobler, a parishioner of St. Francis of Assisi ANCC, will be offering a special charity concert featuring his unique blend of indie folk, singer-songwriter, and Americana music. Known for his thoughtful lyrics, intimate storytelling, and atmospheric sound, Ryan’s music has been compared to artists such as Paul Simon, Sufjan Stevens, and Jeff Buckley. His songs explore themes of love, resilience, hope, and the human experience through beautifully crafted melodies and arrangements.
Ryan’s debut album, The Elusive Yes, received critical acclaim, with Songwriting Magazine praising him as a “songwriter of unparalleled skill.” His music has also been featured in films, television series, and commercials, including Chicago Fire. Most recently, he released The Paper Airplane Life EP with Erik Blicker, drawing comparisons to Simon &amp; Garfunkel and Bon Iver.
Join us for “An Evening of Music for Charity with Ryan Hobler” on Thursday, June 18 at 7:30 PM at St. Francis of Assisi ANCC, located at 195 Ridgewood Ave., Glen Ridge, NJ, for an inspiring evening of music in support of a charitable cause.For tickets, click the link below<a href="https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/st-francis-of-assisi-ancc/an-evening-of-music-for-charity-with-ryan-hobler" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">events.ticketleap.com/tickets/st-francis-of-assisi-ancc/an-evening-of-music-for-charity-with-ryan-hobler</a>
