We are so thankful for the many churches and groups who faithfully serve our community through Community Table each week.

Community Table is an opportunity for anyone in the community that is hungry to come together and enjoy a nice hot meal together while also enjoying the company of one another.

Right now, we have an opportunity for another church or group to step in and be a part of what God is doing. One of our faithful partners needs to step aside for a season, and we would love to see someone fill that place.

The available serving spot is the third Tuesday of every other month, beginning April 21st (with additional dates in June, August, October, and December). This team would provide a meal, dessert, and drinks for around 50–60 people—we’ll take care of everything else!

If your church or group has been looking for a way to serve and impact lives in a real, tangible way, this could be the perfect opportunity.
We would be honored to partner with you!

Feel free to message this page or contact Gannon Richesin at 865-291-8205 for more information.

Let’s continue being the hands and feet of Jesus in our community!

At our January medical clinic, we met a family with a 4-year-old little boy who is in desperate need of dental care. The cost of treatment and other unique circumstances in this situation make it difficult.

We are working with other groups to help cover the cost, but we still need help.

Would you consider giving to help this little boy get the care he needs? Any amount makes a difference.

Thank you for helping us care for this little boy. ❤️ please share!

We are so thankful for Melia Warren and the Children’s Ministry at First Baptist Church McMinnville. It was such a privilege to share about Serve M25 Saturday morning during their DNOW missions emphasis.

The children poured their hearts into making pillows and goodie bags for the homeless children of Warren County. They also prayed over these gifts. Seeing their compassion and willingness to serve was truly encouraging. Moments like this remind us how powerful it is when the next generation is taught to love and care for others.

We are incredibly grateful for their generosity and excited for the opportunity to distribute these gifts to children in our community. Thank you for partnering with us and helping make a difference!

We want to say a heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who supported this mission before the approval was even guaranteed. Your faith, generosity, and belief in what God is doing through this ministry means more than we could ever say.

We truly believe this milestone is just the beginning. God is opening doors, and we are excited to see the lives that will be changed because of it.

Our inaugural Night to Sparkle was a truly unforgettable evening filled with joy, celebration, honor, and so much love. From the smiles to the laughter to the dance floor that stayed full all night long, to rocking the party bus it was all so special. Our Kings and Queens absolutely shined, and each one of you brought beauty and light into the room. It was an honor to celebrate you!

We are incredibly grateful to every volunteer who gave their time, energy, and heart to make this night possible. Events like this don’t happen without people who are willing to serve! Your sacrifice and dedication made all the difference. Thank you for helping create a night our Kings and Queens will never forget.

We also want to say thank you to Shelby Durham for generously volunteering her photography services and capturing so many meaningful moments for us to treasure. You can view the photos from the evening using the link below. Simply enter your email and use the password: 2026.

Our hearts are full, and we are already looking forward with excitement to making Night to Sparkle an annual tradition. This was just the beginning, and we can’t wait to see how it grows in the years to come!

Temperatures are dropping again and our warming center will be opening Saturday night, Sunday all day, Sunday night, Monday all day, Monday night and Tuesday night this week!

We will need help with overnight night shifts so if anyone is able to stay overnight any of those nights please reach out to Gannon.

We will need a few gallons of milk, bananas and cuties, some 2L soft drinks and a loaf of bread.
We still have quite a bit of snack stuff leftover from last time.
