Over 300 – Mobile Makeovers!

Yesterday, we got a chance to make it well over 300 makeovers! We had a young barber named Brittney come and volunteer her services to provide makeovers on the spot in Clayton County.

We met so many wonderful people while out serving! One man named JC was so gracious and encouraging… His words were very touching as he talked and shared his gratitude about life… He sat in the barber’s chair and talked about how God was taking care of him through those that served (in the midst of his hard times).

No. He wasn’t implying that he was a dependent person…

He was simply saying “even when I do not have anything, God finds a way to meet my needs…I couldn’t make it to church but the church came to me…”

He asked us to snap his before and after picture and share it with people to let folks know that he is a human being (although homeless), and he is grateful for those who give their time to uplift those who are oppressed and forgotten. After meeting JC, we connected him to further resources. Below are his pictures!

Showers & Haircuts – Makeovers

This past weekend, we partnered with Community Out Team & TitleMax and provided 25 showers & haircuts to homeless men and women in need.

Not only was it an amazing experience to serve, it was amazing to see brothers and sisters transform. Below are a few pictures from this past weekend.

250+ Flowers – Love Greens

Yesterday, we partnered with 20 volunteers from Northwestern Benefit to serve College Park Housing Authority!

We planted over 250 flowers, and vegetables for seniors living in this community. Not only was it great “greening” the area, but it was just as exciting to see the lasting impact it will have on the families.
