Affinity Community Services is hosting its annual kick-off event, Burning Bowl, on Saturday, Jan. 12, 2019, 1-4 p.m., at Morgan Park UMC at 11030 S. Longwood Dr.
The theme this year will be “Ever Ours: Resisting with Purpose to Thrive in the New Year.”
As always, the event will highlight a community “burn” as a symbolic way of leaving behind negativity in order to confidently move into the future.
In addition, Kim Hunt will be honored with the Robbie Smith Award. The Barbara “Robbie” Smith Award of Excellence is given to someone who exemplifies leadership, perseverance, strength, compassion and integrity.
