What a night. 🙏
This past Thursday was so much more than a commencement ceremony. It was a celebration of redemption, restoration, perseverance, and God’s faithfulness.
To our Re:generation participants CONGRATULATIONS! You showed up, did the hard work, faced the difficult things, and kept going. We are so incredibly proud of each of you. Your stories matter, your lives matter, and what God is doing in and through you matters.
To our mentors, thank you for saying yes. Thank you for showing up, listening, praying, encouraging, challenging, and walking alongside our participants. You gave your time, your hearts, and pieces of your own stories to help someone else find freedom. We could not do this without you.
To the families and friends who stood beside our participants, thank you for celebrating them, supporting them, and believing in them. Your presence and encouragement mean more than you know.
To Neighborhood Church and Pastor David Henderson, thank you for saying YES to Re:generation and for creating a place where people can come exactly as they are and discover that Jesus isn’t finished with their story. Thank you for believing in this ministry and giving us the opportunity to watch God change lives.
And a very special THANK YOU to those who generously donated and helped make this ministry possible:
❤️ Custom Industries Inc.
❤️ Lamar Powell
❤️ Acclaim Construction
❤️ Hamilton Flooring
❤️ Windfall Billing
❤️ McKay & Sarah Nehring
❤️ Debra & Lamar Rasmussen
Your generosity helped make this ministry special for our participants and their families. Thank you for investing in people and in the work God is doing through Re:generation. We are incredibly grateful for each of you.
Thank you Nate Graybill for creating the ministry Re:generation. Thank you Jim Dennis for coaching us through this pilot group. We can’t express enough how grateful we are. 🙏
And most importantly, thank You, Jesus. 🙏
Because this is why we do it.
We believe that no one is too broken, too far gone, too ashamed, or too unqualified for God to use.
This past Thursday, we got to watch people rise.
We got to celebrate the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. These participants aren’t just walking away with a completion of a program, they are walking forward with a testimony, a community, and a God who has been faithful every step of the way.
To our participants : this is not the end. This is just the beginning.
We love you. We believe in you. And we cannot wait to see what God does next.
Congratulations
Here’s to everything God has already done, and everything He is still going to do.
