We are SO blessed to have Next Step Ministries in our community this summer! Thank you for helping us build some very needed wheelchair ramps!

Despite searing heat, a hornets nest, and a pump line break, the Holy Spirit prevails! Ms. L. is so pleased that she can now get in and out of her home.

The letter below was received from Ms. L's daughter:
You all did such a wonderful and beautiful job! You have blessed us more than you will ever know. When going through a time like this with Mom, every little task can seem so overwhelming. So when we realized that we would be needing a ramp for her it seemed like a huge feat. For you all to jump in and get it done so quickly is amazing. It has lifted a huge burden from us and now I can continue to bring Mom here each day free of worry because I can now get her inside safely. I am so glad to know there are such loving people in the world doing such great things in the name of Jesus!
Thank you all so much and God bless each and every one of you!!!
