ONE WHOLE YEAR of Gather n Grace - Burton! ✨💙

One year ago, we dreamed a little dream… a place where people could gather, share a meal, find community, and experience a little more of God’s grace.

And somehow, that little {BIG} dream became so much more. 🤍

This year has been a beautiful reminder of faithfulness, hope, abundance, fellowship, and love.

We have gathered around tables.
We have shared meals and stories.
We have welcomed neighbors and strangers.
We have laughed, prayed, served, and loved.
We have watched God take what we had and somehow make it more than enough.

We have seen hungry bellies filled, children encouraged, families supported, and community strengthened.

But more than anything, we have learned that abundance isn’t always about having more. Sometimes abundance is what happens when we are willing to share what we already have.

A meal becomes fellowship.
A donation becomes hope in ministry.
A helping hand becomes love.
A simple gathering becomes community.
And ordinary people saying yes become part of something extraordinary.

To every volunteer who has shown up, every person who has donated, every congregation and community partner who has believed in this ministry, every family who has gathered around our tables, and every person who has simply walked up…

THANK YOU. 🤍

You are Gather n Grace.

As we celebrate one year, we don’t just celebrate what has been—we look forward with hope and expectation for what God will continue to do.

Here’s to another year of gathering.
Another year of serving.
Another year of sharing.
Another year of grace.

One year down.
So much more to come.🤍✨

Happy 1st Birthday, Gather n Grace - Burton! 🎉🎂🥳

Tonight we celebrated with fried chicken, green beans, mac n cheese, & dessert! 🍽️
We loved having the LPV team from Burton ISD present to serve. 🏐
It is a beautiful thing to witness His kingdom here. 🤍

A heartfelt thank you to our incredible barbers and hairstylists who so generously donated your time, talents, and hearts to provide free haircuts at our Gather n Grace Back to School Bash — Nate, Diana, Andrea, Ashley & company.

Your kindness gave more than fresh haircuts—you gave confidence, dignity, and a reminder that our community is deeply loved and cared for. Your willingness to serve made a lasting impact on so many students and families as they prepare for a new school year.

Thank you for using your gifts to bless others. Your generosity is a beautiful reflection of God’s love in action. We are so grateful for each of you! 🤍✂️

Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude and joy! 🥰

We give thanks to God for His abundant blessings and for allowing us to witness His love in action at the Gather n Grace - Burton Back to School Bash. 🎒✨

Thank you to every person who made this special day possible—from those who donated backpacks, provided free haircuts, bought / assembled after-school snack bags, purchased / packed hygiene kits, Next Generation with socks and underwear, brought and set-up the bounce house, painted smiling faces, and shared countless other gifts.
Your generosity made all the difference. 💙

Thank you to our incredible volunteers who gave their time to set up, welcome guests, serve meals, love our neighbors, and stay until everything was cleaned up. Thank you to our faithful cooks the Clyde Family, our generous donors, the facilities that graciously opened their space, and our silent partners who quietly serve and donate behind the scenes.
Every act of kindness reflected God’s love. 🤍

Most of all, we thank God for the 136 members of our community who joined us today. Every backpack shared, every meal served, every child who laughed and smiled, every conversation around the table reminded us that every person is seen, valued, loved, and cared for. 💙

This is what “Your kingdom come” looks like. It looks like tables filled with food, hearts filled with compassion, neighbors becoming friends, and love overflowing into our community. 🤍

We are humbled and blessed to be witnesses to what God is doing through Gather n Grace - Burton. May He continue to use us as His hands and feet, sharing hope, building relationships, and reminding every person they are deeply loved. 💙
To God be all the glory. 🤍
