The highlight of October at Lincoln Village was our annual celebration. It was a beautiful day looking back on all God has done and looking forward to what is to come. The Lord has been faithful in every way and it is always a sweet time remembering just how faithful he has been. THANK YOU to everyone who attended this year’s event in support of this ministry. None of this would be possible without your commitment to pray for and invest in Lincoln Village.

With school in full swing, there has been a lot of activity with our students and we are excited to share those things with you. We are also coveting your support through the Alabama Accountability Act to provide funding for the next school year. Please take time to read the information provided and prayerfully consider taking part in this amazing opportunity.

A lot has happened over the last few months at Lincoln Village! We transitioned our new Executive Director, Jess Ahrens, and honored Lakshmi Nalamalla for all she has done over the past few years. We welcomed many groups and individuals on campus to volunteer in all areas. We also welcomed a few new neighbors as we said goodbye to some who have graduated the Evolve Program. AND we started back to school!

We cannot be more grateful for all God is doing in and around Lincoln and we and we thank you for coming alongside us to ensure that His mission continues.

“And he said to them, ‘Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.'”
Mark 16:15

“April showers bring May flowers” and things were in full bloom this month at Lincoln Village Ministry! There were a lot of exciting things around school life as school came to a close and we are praying for all of our kids to have a safe and joyful summer. Our annual Beautiful Things Luncheon was well, beautiful! It was a sweet time celebrating all God has done the past year as well as dreaming about what’s to come. As we move into summer around campus we hope that you will join us in praying for all that is to come. You can even join us to volunteer! We are in awe of the small role we get to play in growing God’s kingdom here on Earth.

“Pray then like this: ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”

This year marks the 10 year anniversary of our Camp LEAD program. Camp LEAD is a 7-Week Summer Program for our Lincoln Academy students. These 7 weeks provide academic enrichment and nutritional support throughout the summer. Our campers experience swim lessons, weekly field trips, and an overnight camp adventure. Most importantly, they are taught the Gospel of Jesus and how a meaningful relationship with God can truly change their lives. To celebrate this milestone for Camp LEAD, we're challenging YOU to spend 10 minutes this week praying for our students, staff, and volunteers. Thank you!

"And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people."
