“Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.” Ps. 127:1
Now we are transitioning from making soup to processing peaches and nectarines. Every year there is excitement on base as we prepare for our summer staff and summer teams to arrive and serve. As we visit fruit growers and equipment companies, we connect with various people in the farming industry. Everyone faces challenges. We have the opportunity to listen and pray with many of our friends who run businesses here. Gratefully, we are receiving much favor and we appreciate everyone who helps us to succeed in producing the dried fruit. At the same time, we pray for all our donors. May the Lord lead and guide them to successfully run their businesses, to employ their workers, and to be a blessing in our community.
Let’s labor to the glory of God this summer and let’s build His house!

Champions of service, Bethany Middle School returns for the 3rd time this year, making Gleanings part of their bonding during the 2nd week of the new school year. This was the first visit for about half the students. We sure love having this team here! They produced 21 pallets of Soup Mix, which equals 311,752 servings; 2 pallets of black beans were also packaged.
With a team this large the kids could be found working projects all over the base including landscaping, and repairing peach trays, and most likely other projects as well! God bless you for blessing the hungry with your service!

We’re back along with a team from Redding Christian Fellowship, who have been volunteering at Gleanings for years. We also have visitors from Latvia, Slovakia, New Zealand, and Canada. We are enjoying a change of the pace of work from the Peach Season.
Al and Jeremy are working on a new leach field for the future Single Staff Housing. Jerry is rehabbing our endless stash of used furniture. The weather has cooled down to the mid 80’s, making very enjoyable. Tonight we will celebrate the first Love Feast of the season.
Our theme for this season is Matthew 6:33
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

The DTS team has completed its fifth week of outreach. Our time was focused on service projects, intercession, and evangelism. Boulder and Golden are two of the places where we had prayer walks and interactions with people. We actively listened to people’s stories, talked to them about Jesus and prayed with or for them.
During the week, the DTS team was involved in house moving. We had an opportunity to help a YWAM family. We gave our time and dedication towards the work for three days.
An exciting event that occurred during the week was our visit to an African church called Kingdom Connection in Aurora, Colorado. They operate a food bank once a week and we had an opportunity to partner with them. It was also a time where the team got to experience a different culture and how that affects the process of work and service.
Through the course of the week, we have given ourselves towards the work of ministry. We have gone through moments of trial and also moments of hope. However this week has revealed to us the power of the Father’s love. Therefore we continually strive to be servants and disciples of love for the glory of Christ Jesus.
