Thanks to the generosity, volunteer help, support and prayers of so many, great progress is being made on the Fabrication Shop building! 4 shipping containers are in place, to serve as the sidewalls. The trusses and heavy metal have been purchased and delivered. Many other needed items were donated. This building will provide a place so that people in wheelchairs can start working on projects and assistive devices again! Descriptions are below each photo.

We are a step closer to having a fabrication shop again! Last week this metal red barn building was moved off the slab about 150 feet, so that a larger building can be built on the slab in the future. A huge thank you to the volunteers who helped Harrold with the ideas, preparation, and the move!

We were blessed again to host our spring Ride of Your Life event in May for families of those with special needs. Thank you to everyone who came, volunteered, and shared in the fun! Thanks also to so many who went the extra mile to help set up, and then clean up and set up again after the crazy high winds & thunderstorm the night before!

Innovation Institute has been undergoing some long awaited remodeling this past summer! We are so grateful for cement slabs poured in the two buildings, and the work done on enlarging them. We also praise God for protection and safety during a grass fire on the property. Many, many thanks to those who have donated funds, time, expertise, and hard work out in the heat! Details in the descriptions under the photos.

We’re so grateful to the crew of men from Hillcrest Baptist who came out again last Saturday! They removed the walls from our red barn, to prepare it for a cement floor, and for some remodeling. They also finished painting the pool fence, which looks wonderful! Thank you and God bless you!
