Freeway Ministries

Happy Labor Day from Freeway Ministries!

Today we’re thankful for the opportunity to work, serve, and use the gifts God has given us to make a difference in the lives of others. Whether you’re working today, spending time with family, serving your community, or enjoying a day of rest, we pray you take a moment to recognize that our work ultimately has a greater purpose when we do it for the Lord.

“Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.” Colossians 3:23

At Freeway Ministries, we believe God can take a life that once seemed broken and give it purpose, direction, and a new beginning. We are grateful for every person who works, serves, volunteers, gives, prays, and pours into the lives of those who are walking toward freedom.

Today, we celebrate YOU!

Happy Labor Day from all of us at Freeway Ministries!
May God bless you, your family, and the work of your hands!

Day 25 – Outreach
