Take me out to the ballgame @ Springfield Cardinals

Our mentor group enjoyed cheering on the Cards at Route 66 Stadium, followed up with some Andy’s frozen custard before headed back East bound and down! 😎 ⚾️

For many of our students, it was their first experience on a trip like this.

We love to see these friendships continue to grow on adventure trips like these.

We are so thankful for our community who continually shows up and pours into this ministry.

Today we invited our partners, volunteers, families, friends, and our community to join us for our building dedication.
The time was filled with vision, fellowship, and prayer as we dedicated our new space to The Lord. Words cannot fully express how incredible today was and how thankful we are for The Lord and this community.

"Praise the Lord, my soul;
all my inmost being, praise his holy name.
Praise the Lord, my soul,
and forget not all his benefits—
who forgives all your sins
and heals all your diseases,
who redeems your life from the pit
and crowns you with love and compassion,
who satisfies your desires with good things
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s." Psalm 103: 1-5

"The sun comes up, it's a new day dawning
It's time to sing Your song again
Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me
Let me be singing when the evening comes."

We invite you to join us today and celebrate what the Lord has done.

You're invited to our building dedication June 2nd!

Drop by between 12pm - 1pm for light refreshments, a guided tour of our new building and grounds that was generously donated to us, a look at the vision and future impact of our new property, and opportunities for you, your church, or your business to get involved as we move forward!

Come and be part of this meaningful time of prayer, unity, and vision as we dedicate this space for serving families and our community.

This month's core focus is all about goals and moving forward with purpose!

Philippians 3:14 says, " I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." We ask that you be in prayer for our mentees as they learn more about perseverance and committing to our goals even when it's hard.

Thank you for your continued support!

Mentors Cyneca and Julie recently explored Grand Gulf State Park with their mentees. Giving kids the opportunity to explore and hike these gems in the Ozarks is always a hit!

Grand Gulf is known around here as Missouri’s “Little Grand Canyon.” The gulf itself stretches nearly 1 mile long and reaches up to 130 feet deep.

Great outing, friends!!

Mentors Chad and Aaron recently taught their mentees how to build a picnic table. Very cool!! They even inscribed James 2:18 to seal the deal, which reads, ““But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.”

These are practical skills these boys will remember for the rest of their lives. Building character and sharpening the hearts and minds of young people is a big part of why we are here.

Great work, fellas! 💪🏼 ⚒️ 🧰
