Local art teacher has public projects around Jeffersonville |
|
If you’ve walked the Big Four Bridge and seen the Jeffersonville sign on top of the floodwall pumphouse or the electrical box in front of Kroger at Jeffersonville Commons, you’ve seen the work of Corey Ridings ’95, an art teacher at Jeffersonville High School.
His colorful artwork on top the pumphouse calls to mind the city’s historical shipbuilding industry with the word Jeffersonville representative of a steamboat with smokestacks on top the Fs and a paddlewheel following the city’s name. His electrical box art was inspired by a colorful design he had recently created on his own.

Our Lady of Fatima Novena |
O Most Holy Virgin Mary, you came to Fatima to reveal the graces that come from praying the Holy Rosary to three little shepherd children. Inspire us with a sincere love of this devotion so that, like the shepherd children, it is not a burdensome task but a life-giving prayer. May our prayers and meditations on the mysteries of our redemption bring us closer to your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Like the children of Fatima, we want to bring God’s word to others. Give us the strength, O Lord, to overcome our doubts so that we may be messengers of the Gospel. We know that Jesus lives in our hearts and we receive Him in the Eucharist.
Lord Jesus, the miracles, prophecies and prayers that Your Mother brought to us at Fatima amazed the whole world. We are certain of her closeness to You. We ask through the intercession of Our Lady of Fatima that you graciously hear and answer our prayers.
Our Lady of Fatima, Pray for us!
