Today we wrapped up our ministry projects! We started at the Northside Common Ministries where they serve as transitional housing for men along with a food bank. They also provide wrap around services including a free store for clothes, toiletries, and professional wear for job interviews, ESL & GED classes, and resume writing help. We helped distribute food to all who came to the pantry today, organized their storage shelves, sorted so many donated clothes for the free store and had so many wonderful interactions with the volunteers at that ministry and those who benefit from their services.

Part of our group also got to serve at Light of Life Rescue Mission in the donations center assembling hygiene kits and organizing more supplies to be distributed in the community.
This ministry is a vital hub of support for so many non-profit organizations in Pittsburgh, some of which we got to work with this week. So it was great to be able to connect the dots in how the whole city works together to support the unhoused and at risk population.

We finished our day by taking a ride on the Duquesne Incline to a scenic overlook to pray over the city and debrief our time together this week and the ministries we got to be a part of.

Then it was dinner out at Eat’n Park and back to the church to debrief with the other team from Clarkston UMC, play games and enjoy our last night together in Pittsburgh.

We are so thankful for Praying Pelican Missions, St. Marks UMC, our group leaders, our teens, the city of Pittsburgh, the people we encountered and the ways we got to experience God work this week.

We’ll enjoy a recreation day at the zoo tomorrow and head back home to Findlay!

What a great day! We started out serving at The Red Door- a Catholic Church ministry in downtown Pittsburgh that serves the unhoused population. We cleaned, sorted clothing and hygiene items, prepared and served lunch, made coffee to order and served it with a lot of love and smiles, and served as personal shoppers for any clothing or hygiene items any of the guests requested in the donation rooms we sorted and organized earlier in the day. Our team served with kindness, compassion and showed a lot of love to everyone who walked through The Red Door.

One quote that stuck out from a guest at the mission named Tony - “It’s nice to be important, but it’s more important to be nice.”

Tony’s profound wisdom goes right along with what we’ve been studying in our devotional time all week about Paul’s letter to the Philippians.

After our morning project, we enjoyed a picturesque picnic lunch downtown at Point State Park taking in the sights and history of Pittsburgh.

In the afternoon, we combined forces with the team from Clarkston UMC to do some much needed clean up of one of the oldest cemeteries in Pittsburgh on the property of Greenstone UMC. They only have one trustee and no one has been able to maintain it for years. Multiple mowers, w**d whackers, and pairs of gloves to pick up sticks and branches and we were able to bring beauty back to this space for those graves known and unknown that date back to as early as the War of 1812.

We finished the night with some ice cream, a group debrief and an early bed time!
