❤️🙏🏾 FROM OUR HEARTS—THANK YOU! 🙏🏾❤️

What an AMAZING day of love, service, community, and giving!

On behalf of Pastor Johnny and myself, Hammer’s Haven, and Kingdom of God Ministries, we want to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to every single person who participated in today’s 6th Annual Back-to-School Giveaway & Community Event!

It was an absolute pleasure and honor to serve alongside each of you. ❤️

TODAY WAS A SUCCESS! 🎉🙌🏾

Because so many people came together with willing hearts and helping hands, we were able to bless our community with OVER 150 BOOK BAGS filled with school supplies! 🎒📚✏️

But the blessing didn’t stop there!

Our children, youth, and families were also blessed with:

💈 FREE Haircuts
💇🏾‍♀️ Braids & Quick Weaves
✨ Lashes & Beauty Services
🧴 Hygiene & Household Essentials
🍽️ Food & Refreshments
🩺 Health Resources & Education
🎁 Giveaways, Raffles & so much more!

To every vendor, barber, hairstylist, beauty professional, ministry partner, sponsor, donor, volunteer, family member, friend, and community leader who showed up—you helped make this possible.

Some gave financially.
Some donated products and supplies.
Some gave their professional services.
Some cooked and served food.
Some set up and cleaned up.
Some worked behind the scenes.
Some prayed, encouraged, ministered, and simply showed LOVE.

EVERY HAND MATTERED. EVERY GIFT MATTERED. EVERY PERSON MATTERED. ❤️

What blessed us most was seeing our community come together with one common goal: to serve our children and families and remind them that they are loved, supported, and not forgotten.

This is what COMMUNITY looks like.
This is what SERVICE looks like.
This is what LOVE IN ACTION looks like. ❤️🙌🏾

We could not have done this without YOU!

Pastor Johnny and I are truly grateful for every sacrifice, every donation, every hour volunteered, and every gift that was shared today.

THANK YOU for trusting the vision.
THANK YOU for serving with us.
THANK YOU for loving our community.
THANK YOU for helping us make our 6th Annual Back-to-School Giveaway a SUCCESS!

May God return every seed you sowed into our community back to you in ways greater than you could ever imagine. 🙏🏾❤️

Until next time, we will continue…

🥊 BUILDING STRONGER YOUTH.
❤️ BUILDING STRONGER FAMILIES.
🏘️ BUILDING A STRONGER COMMUNITY.

With love and appreciation,

Pastor Johnny & Pastor Alvetia Higgins
