What an incredible start to our Summer Program!

This week we dove into History Week, and our students had an amazing time learning, exploring, growing, and making memories together!

Throughout the week, we focused on the theme of sacrifice—what it looks like in the Bible, how it has shaped history, and how each of us can make sacrifices in our daily lives for the good of others. These discussions challenged our students to think about character, service, and putting others first.

We also worked hard during our academic time, strengthening reading and math skills each day while keeping learning fun and engaging.

📍 We visited the Medal of Honor Museum
🚋 Rode the Incline Railway while studying the Battle Above the Clouds
🎶 Explored the rich history and culture of the Bessie Smith Cultural Center
🌊 Wrapped up the week with a Fun Day featuring breakfast prepared by the kids, water activities, and time together at the lake

We are so grateful for everyone who has supported our students and helped make these experiences possible. Your generosity creates opportunities for learning, growth, and lasting memories.

As we continue through the summer, we still need your support to provide these life-changing experiences for our youth.

Wyatt Shockley is a 15-year-old Light Heavyweight boxer. He has been boxing for just over a year and a half and has rapidly climbed the national rankings. He is currently ranked #2 in the nation in his age and weight class.

Most recently, Wyatt won the State Silver Gloves Tournament held in Chattanooga, followed by the Regional Silver Gloves Tournament in Little Rock, Arkansas, two weeks ago. From February 24 through February 28, Wyatt will be competing in the USA National Silver Gloves Championships in Independence, Missouri.

We need your help covering travel and competition expenses so Wyatt can chase this dream. A win at this tournament would earn Wyatt a spot on the USA Boxing Junior National Team and serve as a first step toward the 2032 Olympic Games.

Please help us reach our goal of $2,500. Any support is greatly appreciated.

Tonight was such a gift! 🎄
Our InZone Family Christmas Party was incredibly special. For some families, these gifts are the only ones under the tree this Christmas—a powerful reminder of how God provides through His people. Thank you to everyone who sponsored a student or sibling and made this night possible.

Thank you, Jesus, for being the ultimate gift. ❤️

This weekend, we celebrated our meaningful Christmas Angel event, and we are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to walk alongside families during this season. For many of these families, Christmas comes with the weight of absence. Through this program, an incarcerated parent or loved one is given the opportunity to love their family well — offering a tangible reminder that they are still present, still valued, and still connected.

We are thankful for the children and caregivers who joined us to receive gifts, share a meal, and experience the joy of Christmas. And we are deeply grateful for the many supporters who made this possible — those who provided gifts, served with us at the celebration, prayed faithfully, and invested financially in this ministry. Because of you, hope was shared, relationships were honored, and the love of Christ was clearly seen.

We couldn’t have pulled this day off without our friends at God’s Creation Petting Zoo, LLC. The joy this experience brings is like no other!

We are grateful to the churches who made this possible. Thank you Christ Church, Silverdale Baptist Church, Abba's House, and Burks United Methodist Church.

We are also so thankful to the Hixson High School Baseball team for serving so selflessly—helping with food, hot chocolate, and gift distribution. What a powerful way to begin a new season, both on and off the field.tile
