The preacher spoke passionately about seeking the lost and urged the church to consider us as examples of people who were seeking those that are lost. At the end of service, we were invited to come to the front of the church - and the church prayed over us and said a prayer of commissioning! What a special day of worship with our brothers and sisters here in Kentucky!

This morning we took some time before leaving for our service projects to complete an exercise: a five minute, non-stop time of writing out whatever was on our hearts and our thoughts. It was a very cool example of how the Spirit can move, and the Lord showed Himself clearly in some of these “streams of consciousness” - all in just five minutes!

Some of us went to Concerned Citizens, a local organization that helps their community by giving items to those in need, ministering to families, hosting summer camps, running an after school program, hosting various events for different holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving, and more!
They have strong community support and see a lot of donations streaming in and often struggle to find good places for them all! So today, we helped them organize some of their storage areas to allow for even MORE ministry to happen! It was truly a blessing to hear about this organization and have an close-up look at the hand of God at work here.

After a strong day of work, at the Teen Center, we spent a great time in worship and devotion. It is so special to worship with our new friends from Hope Church! Soon after, we enjoyed some surprise ice cream! We had so many laughs and fun! It has been great serving today, as well as spending time growing closer together!

One of the families we served this week had substantial tree damage from the tornado. Massive oak trees were splintered and tangled up with each other. These trees were in a field where the homeowner kept her horses, which could be dangerous to them. When a previous PPM team worked with the homeowner, their Group Leader met a retired tree professional. He agreed to get these tangled up trees on the ground - FOR FREE! Dan is the sweetest man and really loves the Lord! It was such an honor to work hard all day assisting him, especially since he ensured we were doing everything safely! We wonder what other tangled up mess God could use us to clean up next...

Wow, I got a little teary eyed reading about what they are doing! God has a great way of using people to bless others and then those being served being a blessing to the servants. I can't wait to hear stories!
