Downtown Ministries

Happy Friday from our Falcon family😎🦅 We hope everyone has a great weekend - we will see you back in the classroom next week!

What a joy it is to serve!
We’re so grateful for everyone who generously gives their time, resources, and energy to help change the lives of our guests at Our Daily Bread🙌

We are grateful for committed sponsors like the Classic City Rotary Club. Serving on a Friday every other month, their service makes what we do at ODB possible🙌 These local community members embody service and we are so glad to be able to partner with them!

At DtA this week, we had the great privilege of hosting representatives from Athens Twilight and Fleet Feet, including individuals who will be participating in the cycling and running events this weekend at Twilight!

Our guests taught our students about the importance of moving our bodies, resting and hydrating, and how to do various exercises to warm up and build strength in our muscles. We are also grateful that local cyclist Alexa took the time to teach us about cycling and show us all the different parts of her road bike.

We are so excited for the upcoming Twilight races that will be happening this weekend and are glad to know about how we can move and take care of our bodies!

We’ve got selfies and smiles for days at Downtown Academy, especially when we get to hang with our amazing interns at ASP😎

ODB Volunteer Highlight🌟

Keyarra started volunteering at Our Daily Bread in January and has since been enjoying volunteering multiple times a week.

For Keyarra, serving at ODB has meant helping out in a community that wasn’t necessarily her home, but has since started to feel like it. Keyarra describes ODB as a sanctuary where people can come to relax and interact with others amidst the commotion of life. She finds service at ODB, including the seemingly small interactions with others, to be meaningful for herself and others.

We are grateful for wonderful volunteers like Keyarra and are so glad for the positive impact that ODB has not only on our guests but on those that serve!

Our staff and students were GLOWING with joy at our annual Spring Fling😎✨

We had a wonderful time dancing the night away with friends and we are so thankful to celebrate with our Falcon Family!
