Kairos Prison Ministry Weekend #33
Kairos Prison ministry weekend #32 is behind us now, and 23 men have heard and seen the Love that our God has for them. Some of their lives were changed, and all of them have a lot more thinking to do about the role God plays in their lives. One resident from the weekend said that he read the Bible every day and went to church, but it wasn’t until Kairos that he had the Love of God shown to him! We planted the seed, and God will take it from here!
We are now looking forward to weekend #33 that will take place at the end of September. We are actively seeking volunteers that want to play a part in this life changing ministry as well as churches and congregations that we can share the ministry with in hopes of getting them to pray for and support the Kairos team and community. Please take a look: www.kairostoledo.com and email sponsorship@kairostoledo.com to get in touch with us! We’re looking forward to hearing from you!!

Gardeners can’t wait for the invitation: “Time to Party,” nature calls each Spring. And few things sweeten the dirt-fest as well as swapping lilacs for lilies and forget-me-nots for forsythia.
Crews of volunteer gardeners in Bowling Green and Toledo will host two free plant exchanges. Everyone attending can take home at least a few plants; those who donate garden goods can take home even more.
At both exchanges, master gardeners will answer questions. Be sure to know how many hours of direct sunlight your plots receive daily.
Drop off plants beginning at 9 a.m. Saturday, April 27 at the Wood County Fairgrounds, 13800 Poe Rd., Bowling Green. Bring labeled, weed-free plants and gently-used gardening tools and paraphernalia. At 10, the “exchange” opens and continues until all plants are claimed, usually in less than an hour. Information: 419-354-9050 and FB. In its 15th year, Toledo’s Saturday, May 4 exchange moves to Ohlman’s Farm and Greenhouse, 3901 Hill Ave. Plant drop off begins at 8:30 a.m. and plant giveaway at 10. Information: 419-578-6783 and FB.
Youth Biking To Enable the Disabled
Tyler Garn, is part of a fraternity at the University of Toledo called Pi Kappa Phi (πκφ). His fraternity has its own national philanthropy, called “The Ability Experience”, which allows them to be a helping hand for people with disabilities. For example, last spring, they went to the Sunshine Home in Maumee and built a boardwalk so that people who use wheelchairs or walkers can enjoy the outdoors. Through “The Ability Experience”, God opened the door to a greater way to impact through improving the quality of life for people with disabilities.
