"It takes TEAMwork to make the DREAM work!"

You've heard it before, but man it really fits the Community Praise Ministry's Back to School Supply Giveaway and our Huntsville ISD Registration Event this past Saturday!!

Together, the Community Praise Ministry volunteers and donors distributed over 1100 bags of supplies to Huntsville and Walker County students.
Our students and families had the chance to say "hi" to their principals, and get a sausage on a stick courtesy of our Huntsville ISD Transportation Department- and there were plenty of folks from our community joining in on the Back to School fun!

This is the second of two posts--- so many photos!

Thank you to all of you that came out, and thank you to all the people that help make this happen!

Finally, we all had the opportunity to celebrate Dr. King in person!

Today's Celebration had it all- Singing, praise, inspiration and a challenge from special guest speaker, Rev. Kenneth Levingston!

BTW, as they're navigating some issues with the Dr. King Day page, we are posting this on the Community Praise Ministry page to make sure we share it sooner rather than later.

Thank you to all of you that came out and celebrated, and thank you all of our speakers and performers!

From: Dr. Helen Watkins…
Happy New Year! I’m reaching out today to share that our daughter Monica with her anti-trafficking non-profit Beauty for Freedom rang the NASDAQ bell in honor of National Human Trafficking Awareness Month last week.
https://youtu.be/kL5DhPZlVFc

We are so proud of her and Beauty for Freedom has a new mission trip in Mexico at the end of January inn support of young survivors of trafficking we ask that you would support if you are able to. They are still in need of raising $5000 for art supplies, musical instruments, food, COVID tests and PPE.

Any amount of a donation would be so greatly appreciated and a blessing to these young souls who will be empowered by the creativity and music Beauty for Freedom will provide.
You can donate at either link.
