Our high school youth spent yesterday serving at Glade Run Lutheran Services in Pennsylvania, a ministry that supports youth with developmental disabilities and special needs.
Glade Run incorporates nature into its programming as a calming, educational and healing part of the care they provide. Our youth were able to be part of that work by helping with landscaping, painting fence and caring for outdoor spaces around the campus.
“My favorite part about being at Glade Run was helping Tom and the crew with landscaping,” Maxx shared.
Cole said, “The best part of the day was painting fence. Another good part about the day was we were able to pet the livestock.”
Lillie added, “It felt very rewarding to help the maintenance crew complete large projects. In one day alone, they said we saved them almost a month and a half of work!”
What a meaningful day of service, learning and accompaniment in Pittsburgh!
