For our STARS Teams as they prepare for and serve at this year's retreats. What a BLESSING these men and women are to their fellow brothers and sisters in Christ! Pastor Speaks has said that if you are doing something worthwhile for the Kingdom, the devil will be present. So please keep the team and those attending the retreat in your prayers.
Last weekend Hope Street had an Open House for their Refuge Garden. The garden will be open to the community through the summer and early fall. The land that the garden sits on will become Shechem, a neighborhood community center with a gymnasium, a café, meeting and classroom spaces, and a rooftop garden.
We encourage you to visit the garden and pray for the building process and those who will use this space in the future, that God's presence would be felt now and always.
HCL has a mission team serving with Habitat for Humanity and Thrivent this weekend. They are helping to build a home in the Midtown neighborhood of Milwaukee. We are thankful for their generosity of time and talents!
Another way to give to Habitat and their building projects is to donate to and shop at their ReStores.
