On Sunday and Monday nights of this week, Tuskegee and Livingston both hosted their end of the summer closing celebrations! During these celebrations, we were able to share a meal together and celebrate our partnerships with the different children and families with whom we’ve served alongside this summer. We recognized both the children and the families with certificates, gifts, Bibles, and kind and encouraging words. We enjoyed watching the day camp kids sing, dance, and recite scripture and poems as well as listening to the inspirational words of many different people from the communities as they gave testament to the great work that God is doing in and through ARM. We were delighted to have packed houses at both celebrations–having over 100 guests in attendance both nights! Thank you to everyone who made these celebrations possible, especially the summer staff, the day camp children and their families, the home repair families, our board members, pastors, community members and school officials, and Livingston UMC and Tuskegee UMC for hosting the celebrations!
