What an amazing Sunday morning at Cornerstone Church where we heard an amazing service and got to worship together with the congregation!
Absolutely love seeing this group come together and experience something new at a church in Duncan Falls, OH. We cannot wait to see what God has in store for us this week!

Our first ministry day out! We went to Christ’s Table and served lunch to the community!
This nonprofit organization provides meals to over 200,000 people a year! It’s so amazing to come alongside such a needed service to help them out in any way we can. We got to meet so many wonderful people and hear so many testimonies. We cannot wait to come back home and tell all that we heard today!

Later this afternoon we went to the Salvation Army and helped out with their pantry!
We packed everything up so it can be moved to a new location and are able to help in the process of them making some renovations. It’s so amazing to see them able to make changes and improve in areas so they can best help the community!
It was such a God filled day today. And we cannot wait to see what God has in store for us tomorrow!

Our team was able to go to Christ Table and not just put food on a plate, but a smile on a face! It's a joy to serve others!

It’s so amazing to see our team and the community come together, pray together, and feed together!
It was awesome to feed the people breakfast at TruLight Ministries and it was so awesome to talk with everybody and the kindness all around!
TruLight Ministries does so much for the community! They feed, clothe, and give shelter to the people that may need it. It was such a blessing to help and get to see how God has worked in this organization!

So many blessings at TruLight!
We went to the warehouse in the afternoon at TruLight Ministries and bagged up clothes and other items that people may need so we can provide warm, dry clothes!
So many people have given to this organization because they know their reputation of serving the community and they are able to help anyone in need!

After a hard day's work we took the team to get some ice cream and, oh man, it was delicious!
Such a staple to come to Tom’s Ice Cream Bowl and get some amazing ice cream.

We got to serve lunch at Christs Table this morning. What a fun time serving sloppy joes and sides to those in need. We even got to reconnect with some of our friends from earlier in the week!

Today we did some landscape and cleaning for Cornerstone Church!
They have an amazing facility and disc golf course that the community is free to use everyday! It was so awesome to help them today and keep the area clean.

We had the pleasure to prepare and serve breakfast to the community members that came in. We were also able to sit and eat with them and hear them share their stories.

We were able to serve at the Salvation Army again today. We had a good time moving a bunch of cans of green beans to the pantry for their soup kitchen. We moved so many green beans that of course we had to take a photo holding some!
