Thank you to all of our friends on social media for your love and support of the members of our congregation as they served in the Spirit of the call of Christ to work for love, faith, hope, peace, and justice by working in partnership with our international partners Peace be with everyone for safe travels home.

According to SERRV’s website “poverty remains a terrible reality for many of our world’s citizens. While it exists everywhere, it’s most severe in developing countries, where more than 700 million people - half of them children - live in less than $1.90 a day.” To our friends who are showing signs of tiring when huge boxes of baskets are delivered for processing, thank you for your efforts to make a difference. Rest up - another work day lies ahead.

Our group is working today in the SERVV warehouse where products from artisans around the world are prepared for distribution and sale. Their job is to quality check, put on price tags, and package items for shipping. Through the support of volunteers, SERRV’s overhead stays low so artisans can receive a fair price for their work and earn a living wage to support themselves and their families.

When we face the challenge of offering help to causes that help those in need, we know our time in prayer together and having some fun along the way is important too. Tomorrow the work begins...

Our group made it to New Windsor, Maryland after a lunch stop along the way. And you can see their fearless leader is taking a much needed rest after getting everyone settled into the hotel and before they move on to devotionals and fellowship tonight.

You are always welcome here

We are enriched by many voices and united in one Spirit, the spirit of a God who loves each one of us abundantly and unconditionally.
