In Grace

We made it to West Virginia, got settled and had our orientation meeting. It was good to spend time in the Word and worship together to start our week. We're looking forward to what the Lord will do.

We were so blessed to open the worship service at our partner church, First Church of the Nazarene, this morning. The whole service honored the Lord and pointed people to Him. It was a great reminder of why we are here this week.

Believe it or not, this floor was totally clear and the room completely organized by the time we left the Harmony House today. It feels really good to finish the project.

We had so much fun sorting baby clothes at A New Beginning Pregnancy Resource Center! This ministry serves mothers and fathers in crisis pregnancy situations with education and resources to help them be successful and supported in raising their children.

We got to serve lunch at a new ministry partner for PPM. It is a house that was given to a couple who simply wanted to do organic relational ministry to the needy and forgotten in their neighborhood. We sang, danced, served and prayed with the new friends we met. We were blessed probably even more than they were by our time at the house.

One of our jobs at the Huntington City Mission was packing good boxes for families. We also helped the kitchen manager with lots of heavy lifting, including many cases of milk.

We decided to spend part of our rec day serving at the Union Mission in Charleston, WV. Party of that service included stocking the thrift store that funds a big part of their ministry. It was so nice and clean, and we had fun seeing so many people from the community come in and shop.
