That’s a wrap on Harvest of Hope, and our hearts are full. 🧡🎃

Tonight the Field of Hope came alive. Kids painting pumpkins with total concentration. A dinosaur loose on the lawn. Co****le as the sun went down. Trunk after trunk of treats and joy.

To every family who came out: thank you for trusting us with your Friday night. Watching you laugh together on this field is exactly why this place exists.

To our volunteers: you checked families in, poured drinks, served food and ran games. You gave up your Friday night so our kids could have a great one.

To our trunk hosts: Noah’s Ark, Shine God’s Light, the glow trunk, the Niners tailgate, the cookie trunk and so many more. You turned a parking lot into the happiest block in East Palo Alto. Those trunks took real time and real love. Thank you.

To our staff: you carried a hundred quiet details for weeks so tonight could feel easy. It did. We’re so grateful for you.

Thirty days of Gather Hope ended exactly the way it should: together, on Beech Street, under the same sky.

However you were part of tonight, thank you. Rest well, and have a safe weekend. 🌾

Nobody grows a harvest alone. 🌾

Thirty days ago we started this campaign with one idea: hope gets planted before it grows.

Paul wrote to a church that kept arguing over which leader deserved the credit:
“I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow.” (1 Corinthians 3:6)

He wasn’t taking credit. He was passing it around.

That’s how forty years on Beech Street happened. Planted in 1984. Watered by staff and volunteers who keep showing up. Shared by families and churches. Grown by God, one ordinary afternoon at a time.

If you gave, prayed, volunteered, or sent this to a friend this month, you’re on that label too. Thank you. 🧡

Tomorrow we gather.

Every afterschool program has a lost and found. 🧤

You know the kind of things that end up in there.
One glove, still waiting on its match.
A hoodie two sizes too big.
A water bottle covered in stickers.
A dragon drawing, half colored in.

Here’s the thing. Nobody forgets their favorite hoodie somewhere they don’t feel safe.

Kids leave things behind in places that feel like home. Places where they can stop guarding their stuff, stop guarding themselves, and just be a kid for a few hours.

So a full lost and found is a good sign. It means kids walked in, let their guard down, and stayed awhile.

To everyone who has given, prayed, volunteered, or simply shown up: thank you for helping build that kind of place. 🧡

Help keep the doors open for the next kid who walks in. Give any amount: hopehorizonepa.org/ways-to-give

And come celebrate with us this Friday.

We found a seed packet on our desk. 🌱

Variety: The Ordinary Afternoon.
Results not guaranteed. Plant anyway.

Flip it over and the instructions get honest:
Sow after school, any weekday.
Plant one honest question.
Give it sunlight: someone who knows your name.
Water with patience, daily.
Days to sprout: unknown. Maybe a week. Maybe ten years.

The Bible put it this way a long time ago: “Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let your hands not be idle, for you do not know which will succeed.” (Ecclesiastes 11:6)

Eight days from now, we celebrate the harvest. Come see what’s growing.

You already know someone who would love this place.

Think about how many good things in your life started with someone saying, “You should meet...” A job. A mentor. A church. A friend who became family.

This week, we’re asking you to say those words for Hope Horizon.

Who comes to mind? The friend who coaches every Saturday. The coworker who runs your company’s giving. The neighbor who always asks how she can help.

Send them this post and copy [email protected]. One introduction is all it takes.

Gather Hope is raising $200,000 for the rooms where our students learn. You can also give any amount at hopehorizonepa.org/ways-to-give

A Sunday thank you.

This work has always had a church standing behind it.

Most of what churches give never makes the news. Weekend work days on our campus, a model one church partner started here years ago. Volunteers who come to our events, then come back the next year. Prayers for our students that we will never hear about.

To every congregation that has stood with Hope Horizon: thank you.

Is your church part of this yet? Tag it below, or introduce us to your pastor or missions team: [email protected]

The Field of Hope turned five today, and it wrote you a letter.

Swipe to read it.

Five years ago, on October 10, 2021, a bumpy patch of ground beside our building opened as the Field of Hope: a basketball court, a turf field, a picnic area, and a circle built around a campfire ring.

It took neighbors, churches, volunteers, and partners two years of work to get there. More than 230 people came to open it.

This morning, Beautiful Day volunteers are back out there, taking care of it again. Thank you, every one of you.

The field left a question in its P.S. Where did you spend Saturdays as a kid?

A) On a basketball court
B) Running around a field
C) At a picnic with family
D) Around a campfire

Answer with one letter below.

The biggest meal in the Bible started with a kid’s lunch.

Five small loaves. Two small fish. Even the disciples did the math out loud: “How far will they go among so many?”

The boy handed it over anyway. Five thousand people ate.

Nobody remembers his name. Everybody remembers what happened when he shared.

So, what’s in your basket this week?
A gift of any size.
A name to introduce.
An afternoon to give.
A prayer for our kids.

Bring what you have. Link in bio, or [email protected]
