Buckets of Love

There hasn't been much happening at StonePath the past couple days.  The kids managed to get some beds weeded (what a blessing to have willing helpers), which allowed us to focus on some in home projects. We are finishing a remodel on our front, family room.  Shell and I have been called to lead our churches Senior High Youth Group, and plan to hold meetings there. It will be great fun and a true blessing.

In the meantime, we were able to participate and see completed a very cool mission project. We have been involved with The Risley Agricultural Center which is a non-profit, Christ centered ministry.  One of the projects we recently helped with was the "Buckets of Love" ministry. It's a simple, yet wonderful, ministry where we planted 5 gallon buckets with a tomato plant to be given to the poor. We planted and delivered around 140 buckets to the needy in our area yesterday.

  1. That's so cool. I work on a garden ministry for my church and we support several parachurch organizations like food pantries, low income childcare centers, etc. Feeding people is the best :)
