We are so thankful for the amazing work of the Master Gardeners in our area. They give tons of time and energy to make sure that we have fresh herbs and veggies in the food pantry.
We also can't forget to thank Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department. They have worked so hard to find us financial and practical support to find the Clinton Neighborhood healthy foods.

We are so excited to host Peacemakers Summer Camp at ConnectioN Point this summer. Do you know a kid age 4-13 who is looking for something fun to do? We will meet June 15-17th from 5:30-7:30 pm. We will have dinner, play games, make crafts, and learn together. We will have a water day on the last day of camp (which will be extra fun)! We just ask that you sign up.

At ConnectioN Point we hope to remind others just how much worth they have, even if they feel like life has knocked them down. We hope our pantry provides more than just food, we hope our English classes provide more than language, we hope our block parties provide more than food---we hope they provide real community.

We are grateful for the middle schoolers and high schoolers who open themselves up to learning about the injustice in our world through spending time and serving at ConnectioN Point. Today, we want to say thanks to the Confirmands from Vine Congregational United Church of Christ and Wahoo First United Methodist Church--- what a great way to start off your faith journey!

Our friend Lori has so many challenging things going on in her life, but this week she took the time to make CP a flower bouquet. Lori, thanks for reminding us we can make the world brighter even when things in our own lives feel dark.
