I Love Charlotte Limpa

On the first Saturday of April, the Queen City recieved a very special community service from youth members of TheJesus Ministry, Inc..... a city wide cleanup/beautifucation day.  Members from this youth cleanup brigade could be seen walking along Albermarle road in East Charlotte picking up debris along the street. ' I Love Charlotte Limpa' is the name of the annual community servie event sponsored by Jesus Ministries.  We send a heartfelt THANK YOU to these young people for their BIG contribution to our city.  Keeping Charlotte beautiful is truly an important responsibility for all Charlotteans.  These young people are a shining example of what can be done to make a positive change in local community.
