We have arrived!!!!!

Sun Morning Service
by Justin Jones | March 2, 2026 11:41 AM
Yesterday morning we had the opportunity to worship with Ballard Church. They asked us to help in various ways for the service. Abbi went up to the pastor immediately and asked him if she could help with running the slides because this is what she does at her church. This is amazing because last year in this trip she would not have gone up to speak with him. She got out of her comfort zone on last year's mission trip and is doing amazing this year.

Today we cooked and served breakfast and lunch at New Horizons. A wonderful day getting to know the staff and all the great work that they do there and talking with the folks that were enjoying the delicious meals we made for them. Funest part was sharing Gods love!

Psalm 23:1-6 1 The LORD is my shepherd. I lack nothing. 2 He lets me rest in grassy meadows; he leads me to restful waters; 3 he keeps me alive. He guides me in proper paths for the sake of his good name. 4 Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no danger because you are with me. Your rod and your staff they protect me. 5 You set a table for me right in front of my enemies. You bathe my head in oil; my cup is so full it spills over! 6 Yes, goodness and faithful love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will live in the LORD’s house as long as I live
