On this National Day of Prayer, we at FaithActs for Education reaffirm our commitment to harnessing the power of faith to advocate for the education our children rightfully deserve. As Connecticut’s only Black-led, faith-based education advocacy organization, we are driven by a divine calling to uplift every child, enabling them to reach their God-given potential. Today, we reflect on scriptures that not only guide our mission but also inspire us to action. These sacred words are the bedrock of our belief that together, through faith and determination, we can transform the educational landscape for Connecticut’s children—especially those of color who have been historically marginalized. In previous years, this day has seen us gather at the state capitol, turning prayer into powerful advocacy, making our voices heard and our presence felt. We continue to believe that our collective prayers and actions can bring about the systemic changes necessary to ensure equitable education for all. Join us as we pray, act, and advocate for a future where every child can flourish. Learn how you can be part of this transformative movement by visiting the link in our bio. Together, we can make a difference. #NationalDayofPrayer #FaithInAction #nonprofitsofinstagram #nonforprofits #educationnonprofit #educationforall #educationforallchildren #ctcloseup #hartfordcourant #newhavenregister #connecticutmom #connecticut_igers #connecticutbusiness #connecticutmade #connecticutevents #connecticutchurch #bridgeportct #newhavenct #hartfordct #connecticutgram #connecticutlife #connecticutliving #faithbased #educationalequity #faith #faithquotes #faithingod #havefaith #faithfriday

Project Recipes From Mom My mom is one week post knee replacement surgery today, and since we’re in CT helping her out for a bit, it’s fun to have another opportunity to share some recipes with her! Recipe #37: Bacon, Egg And Brussels Sprouts Salad (by Melissa Clark, The New York Times, shared on April 4, 2024 in the Hartford Courant) I did change this one up just a bit. I know it would’ve been amazing to pour a good amount of the hot bacon fat over the thinly sliced Brussels Sprouts for a take on a wilted salad. But, I didn’t. Instead I poured most of the bacon fat off and cooked the Brussels Sprouts in olive oil for a short while. It was still incredibly delicious! #projectrecipesfrommom #brusselsprouts #bacon #eggs #hartfordcourant #recipes #recovery

Before I dove deep into screenprinting textiles and offering greeting cards and prints I spent most of my early career working as a freelance illustrator. I started out as an illustrator before I graduated from the Minneapolis College of Art & Design with a BFA. I've illustrated everything from tiny spot illustrations for periodicals/newspapers to full color books, billboards and advertising campaigns. They say variety is the spice of life and I'm grateful for this "spicy" career where I learned so much about communication, teamwork and always being open to new information. I am looking forward to this new chapter in my creative life. I'm still in the midst of a career transition but I am adapting and changing and that feels good! #katebrennanhall #illustrators #gouachepaintings #freelancelife #minneapoliscollegeofartanddesign #mcadgrad #mcad #billboards #newspapers #peridicals #doubleday #harcourt #runningpress #bostonglobe #hartfordcourant #media #advertising

“…formerly followed the seas, and still has the appearance of a sailor boy.” 💙 We found this advertisement in an 1809 edition of the Hartford _Courant_ and were struck by the advertiser’s assumption that everyone knows what makes a sailor look different from everyone else. Is it what they wear or something less definable that speaks of long watches, heavy weather, blinding sun?Could you recognize a sailor today?

Aviator Highlight: Mary Goodrich Jenson (1907-2004) Mary began taking flying lessons at Brainard Field after being told by the Hartford Courant that if she could beat a female employee at a rival newspaper to the her pilot's license, she could have a job at the Courant. Mary earned her license in 1928, becoming the first licensed female pilot in the state of Connecticut. Known as "Girl Pilot," Mary traveled across the eastern United States, covering airshows as the Courant's first aviation editor. She was also the newspaper's first woman to have a bylined column. The museum exhibit "New England Women in Aviation" is dedicated to Mary Goodrich Jenson. Visit the museum to learn more about this region's women in aviation! #cthistory #aviationhistory #womenshistorymonth #aviators #hartfordcourant #newenglandairmuseum
