Upward Bound Kids at TSW



About 50 high schoolers from UMBC's Upward Bound program gave their service hours to working at The Samaritan Women. The guys cleared decades of brush out of the driveway and even learned how to create a genuine "Abe Lincoln" fence! The girls were painting mavens on the porch!

There was no shortage of work to go around. Thank you UMBC for setting this up!

Connection Point


A Volunteer Powerhouse!
On June 13th we hosted a team from Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, KY and the newly-forming Missions Team of Mosaic Christian Church in Hanover, MD. Now granted, they DID get some of the more fun jobs, but they also did their share of grunt work. Kevin found his bliss on the tractor while the other guys hauled cast-iron bathtubs and the women put the first coat of paint on the walls!! We ended the day in prayer and a promise to come back again in July. Whoo hoo!

Mind the Gap Returns for More!


They are fearless; they are relentless! ...and we love them!


Just think: all that mudding, and sanding (and then going back and fixing all the goobers that make Steve crazy) and priming is all going to be worth it someday!
