🙏 A huge thank you to American Home Design for sponsoring our annual gala!

Since 1977, American Home Design has been helping Tennessee homeowners transform their houses into more comfortable, beautiful, and energy-efficient homes — from windows and doors to bath remodels and outdoor living spaces.

Their generosity helps us continue sending teams around the world to serve communities in need, build lasting relationships, and share the love of Christ through hands-on mission work. Partners like American Home Design make it possible for us to keep saying "yes" to the next trip, the next team, and the next family we get to serve.

Thank you for investing in our mission — we're grateful for partners who believe in what we do! 🏡💛

Meet Randall. ❤️

When we met Randall in Bluefield, West Virginia, getting in and out of his own home had become a challenge because of mobility issues.

That’s when a team all the way from Maryland and New Jersey stepped in. Steven and his son, Spencer, were part of the team that spent the day building Randall a new ramp—giving him the freedom to safely come and go from his own home.

But they didn’t just build a ramp. They spent time with Randall, listened to his stories, laughed with him, and reminded him that he is seen, loved, and not forgotten.

And Randall’s story is just one of many we had the privilege of being part of on the mission field this summer. Across communities near and far, God used ordinary people willing to say “yes” to meet practical needs and love their neighbors well.

Want to experience moments like these for yourself? ❤️ Check out the link in our bio or send us a DM to get the conversation rolling. We’d love to help you find a place to serve!

This summer, building a ramp meant so much more than completing a project. ❤️

We had the privilege of meeting Bill and his wife, Janice—two of the sweetest people you’ll ever meet.

As Bill has been going through cancer treatment, getting in and out of their home had become difficult. So this summer, Mission Discovery teams had the opportunity to come alongside them and build a ramp to make their home more accessible.

But our relationship with Bill and Janice doesn't end because the ramp was finished.

This week, Bill has been in the hospital, and Janice has asked for prayer.

Would you help us surround this sweet family in prayer? 🙏 Pray for Bill, for Janice, for his doctors and care team, and for God’s peace and presence to be especially near to them in the days ahead.

Comment below and let Bill and Janice know that brothers and sisters in Christ all over the world are praying for them. 🤍

💙 What a way to close out the summer!

A group of 26 middle school students and leaders from Shelter Rock Church on Long Island came to Boston and served alongside 10 local churches to meet needs throughout the greater Boston area.

🔨 They tackled construction projects, painted homes, and went door-to-door in a low-income housing community simply asking, “How can we help?”

The goal was simple: to remind people that they are not forgotten—that we see them, and more importantly, God sees them.

We’re so grateful for Shelter Rock. They’ve been serving with us all around the world for many years, and they keep coming back. What a gift to watch the next generation learn what it looks like to serve others and love their neighbors well. 🙌

👇 Comment “BOSTON” if you’re interested in serving in Boston next year. There’s still plenty to do!

Some moments stay with you forever.

Mission Discovery Intern Rebecca has spent her summer serving in Jamaica, Guatemala, and now Costa Rica—and she'll finish her internship with one final week in Boston.

Through every country, one theme has followed her:

God always has her in the right place at the right time.

While building a home in Guatemala, her team was working at a house site located in a landfill. As she shoveled dirt for the foundation, her shovel struck something buried beneath the ground.

It was a small piece of wood in the shape of a cross.

"I sat there in such shock and trust that God had put me there at the right time. God gave me a reminder that I was right where I’m supposed to be. In disbelief and uncertainty, I believed everything was going to be okay."

What could have looked like an ordinary piece of scrap became a holy reminder.

God doesn't always give us the whole roadmap. Sometimes He simply gives us enough assurance to take the next step.

We're so thankful for the ways He's been reminding Rebecca that His timing is always perfect. ❤️

Could God be inviting you on a journey like Rebecca's?

What a week of ministry across Mission Discovery locations! ❤️🌎

In Nashville, Faith Reformed Church and Intern Kylie Pease served through VBS at Dream Streets, repaired homes, completed 4 construction projects, and served 150 meals to those in need.

In Bluefield, Weddington Methodist Church, Intern Kellan Hill, and Madeline Henson spent the week preparing porches and railings for painting, building decks, completing landscaping projects, and ministering to families in the community.

In Eden, Jamaica, Siler Presbyterian Church, Peace Church, the Freed Family, and Intern Rebecca Drexler served through home repair projects, helping create safer and more comfortable spaces for local families.

In Puerto Rico, Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church, First Evangelical Presbyterian Church of Roanoke, and Intern Noah Harris served 110 meals and witnessed the power of hope firsthand. Originally assigned to another project, the team was redirected to the home of a man named Tole who had lost hope and was considering ending his life. After clearing out his home, painting, cleaning, and showing him the love of Christ through their presence, Tole’s outlook completely changed. He now looks toward the future with renewed hope.

In Daytona, Only Believe Youth served 25 children through VBS, provided 1,500 meals, distributed more than 350 bags of food to families in need, served migrant fern workers and individuals experiencing homelessness, beautified the Rose Marie Bryon Children’s Center, and led SHINEkids. The week concluded with approximately 17 children making professions of faith in Jesus Christ.

Every repaired home, every meal served, every child reached, and every conversation shared is a reminder that God is at work in communities around the world. Thank you to every volunteer, leader, church partner, and intern who answered the call to serve this week.

Last week, we had incredible teams that served in Guatemala, Jamaica, and Rapid City, SD! 🌎

Guatemala: Northside Church , Appalachian Christian School , and interns Cassidy & Noah.
Rapid City: Central Youth Group and Project Coordinator Phil Long.
Jamaica: Siler Presbyterian Church , Peace Church , Michael & Samantha Freed, and intern Rebecca.

In Jamaica, teams spent the week pouring concrete, supporting projects at local schools, and began building a home for Valerie, a woman who lost her home in a hurricane. Despite muddy conditions and passing storms, teams worked hard and adapted to whatever the week brought.

In Guatemala, teams wrapped up a week of medical clinics, home builds, and food deliveries. Across multiple communities, volunteers worked hard while growing deeper in their faith and seeing what God was doing through their time there.

Thank you to every volunteer, leader, and intern who served last week. We’re grateful for each of you and the communities you helped! ❤️

These interns are an answer to years of prayer.

In February 2024, the Mission Discovery team sat down and dreamed about what our internship program could become. We prayed that God would bring us five young adults to invest in, disciple, and serve alongside during the summer of 2026.

He gave us seven.

And not only did He give us more than we asked for—He gave us more than we could have imagined.

Last week, three of those interns kicked off the summer in Asheville, North Carolina, and they poured themselves into the community from day one.

Cassidy, fueled by Diet Coke and determination, served at food banks, helped break down stigmas surrounding homelessness, mopped floors without complaint, and shared her story of faith with boldness and grace.

Noah, a culinary student with incredible talent, prepared meals for both the team and the community. Even with limited supplies and challenging conditions, he consistently turned simple ingredients into something special. (He also casually ran a half marathon one morning, but that’s another story.)

Dominick made countless Lowe’s runs, introduced several teammates to Cook Out for the first time, helped create two thriving community gardens, and equipped his team to worship each evening.

And that’s only the beginning.

The impact these interns made in Asheville can’t be measured by completed projects alone. It’s found in every conversation, every act of service, every meal shared, and every person who experienced the love of Christ through them.

We are incredibly grateful for these young leaders and the way they’re choosing to spend their summer serving others. Watching God work through them—and transform them in the process—has already been a gift.

Would you help us encourage them?

Drop a ❤️ in the comments for Cassidy, Noah, and Dominick!

And if you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to spend your summer serving, growing, and making a difference through missions, send us a DM. We’d love to tell you more about becoming a Mission Discovery intern.
