Sunday Service at First Baptist Church Ridgeland

by Lauren Dorsey | July 23, 2023 2:46 PM

This team started their morning early with a wonderful service at First Baptist Church Ridgeland. We got the opportunity to sit & fellowship with different members of the congregation. 

Following church, the team enjoyed a yummy lunch at Sal & Mookies. We had the best conversations of sharing testimonies & speaking truth and light into each others lives. 

The Lord is already moving in the hearts of these students! Praise Him for such a beautiful day!

Ministry Shopping!

Yesterday afternoon we went shopping for a ministry called, Soul Snatchers that we will be helping out with later this week! We are so excited to see how the Lord is going to use this food to create a doorway for us to share the gospel!

Evening Debrief & Worship

by Lauren Dorsey | July 24, 2023 9:36 AM

The team ended their first day in Jackson recapping how they saw God in the little moments throughout the activities. We heard an amazing message from James on saying “yes” and stepping into the unknown out of obedience to the Lord. We are ended the debrief with fun songs and dances to “My Lighthouse” and “This Little Light of Mine!”

Building Relationships with Mr. Leon

by Lauren Dorsey | July 25, 2023 11:38 PM

Today, a group of the students had the opportunity to serve lunch to over 100 individuals in the community experiencing homelessness at our partnership “StewPot.” 


Sweet Mr. Leon came up to a group of us thanking us for our service and said a blessing over us and headed out on his way. 20 minutes later, he walked back in to share with us a message he felt the Holy Spirit laid on his heart. Mr. Leon shared with us a beautiful poem he wrote 38 years ago that filled us with inspiration and joy! 

The students were able to have such fruitful conversation with him followed by a circle of prayer! This is evidence of God working in their lives! Praise be to God for Mr. Leon’s boldness in sharing his story and the students eagerness to pray with him and serve!

The Lord is Moving!

by Reagan Norman | July 27, 2023 10:52 AM

Before our ministry this morning started the Lord was already moving! It’s such a good reminder that we can not confine God to a box or a time slot. The Lord wants to move in every moment in our lives. We are praying that we have the heart to stop and see the Lord moving! We don’t want to miss out on what He’s already doing!
The Lord is Moving!
