A father's influence can last a lifetime.

From teaching life lessons and sharing wisdom to offering support, laughter, and encouragement, fathers help shape the hearts and futures of those they love.

Today, we celebrate the dads and father figures whose commitment and care make a difference every day.

Happy Father's Day! 🎣

☀️ Summer is here! ☀️

Put the screens away for a little while and enjoy the simple moments that make this season special: backyard games, fishing, swimming, picnics, ice cream, park walks, and time with the people you love.

The best summer memories are often the simplest ones. 💛

Get outside. Soak up the sunshine. Enjoy each other!

🙏 Join Us for the Hope for Every Heart Prayer Walk! 🙏

Start your day with purpose and encouragement at our Hope for Every Heart Family Fest as we gather for a special Prayer Walk at 9:00 AM.

We are honored to have four local pastors share brief devotions and lead us in prayer as we reflect on four important areas of our community and culture:

❤️ Moms - Rodney Burton - Crossroots Church
💙 Dads - Ben Sawyer - New Life Pentecostal Church
👶 The Unborn - Jody Kitts - Altamont Christian Church
✝️ The Lost - Kevin Colclasure - Scott Ave Christian Church

🎵 🎤 Join us after the walk for live worship music!

This meaningful time will encourage hearts, unite our community, and remind us of the power of prayer.

To our incredible church family and partners: Thank you! 💛

We truly love getting to visit your churches, share updates, and connect with your congregations. Your support is what makes this work possible.

Right now, we’re in the middle of our Baby Bottle Project (Mother’s Day to Father’s Day), and we’re so encouraged by the churches already participating in this fundraising effort.

If your church or group hasn’t joined in yet, there’s still time: we’d love to come share at a service or small group.

You can also give online here: https://champ.ly/lNVqHDhH

We’re excited to announce our new sign has officially been installed across from the high school!

Our hope is that it helps make more people aware of the free services we offer, including pregnancy testing, STI testing, and ultrasounds. We are here to provide support, resources, and care for those in our community who may need it.

Be sure to watch for it as you drive by!
