Owsley County (Kristin Belcher and Chris Liles) Emma Quire Mission Center, Owsley County, KY
By Kristin Belcher First Baptist Church Frankfort spent a few days at the Emma Quire Mission Center in Owsley County in early July. The focus was on education and missions. Backpacks were packed with school supplies for 16 different children in the Owsley County and Nada communities. The group watched Beyond the Poverty: Challenges and promise in one of the nations poorest counties, a series of videos, produced by Don Weber at cn2 network. These videos helped inform the group on the education systems and commerce of Owsley County. FBC Frankfort left Owsley County with prayers of hope and a sense of challenge to do what we can to make the world better for all people. By Chris Liles July 11th through 13th, the youth from Broadway Baptist Church, in Louisville, took a trip to Owsley County for a mission retreat. The theme of which was learning to look for and see God in everyone around us. To put these learnings into practice, the youth spent time working at Eastside Apartments, a retirement community in Booneville. While there, the youth played Bingo with residents, helped wash windows, weeded several gardens, and helped clean-up trash and landscaping. They were also invited to a delicious potluck luncheon and poetry recitation, hosted by the residents.

Extreme Build
Though it was my first build of its kind working at Extreme Build this summer, it is so clear to see the Miracle of Partnerships that God works through the people that participated. Each year Extreme Build serves as an example of Gods call for people to invest in something greater than themselves, to bring together meager resources and a passionate heart, and to let Gods grace multiply it into something truly amazing. As an ongoing ministry, it was inspiring to see the kind of continued impact Extreme Build and our partners have had in the community. Although the goal of building a physical house is clearly one of the primary reasons for embarking on such a project, it is the relationships that are built that create the lasting bonds that people speak of when recalling the work God did through Extreme Build. This years build marked the eighth successful year of the project not only because another family received a home that will allow them to pursue Gods calling in their lives, but because another family has joined our family in the KBF and new relationships have formed and strengthened with our brothers and sisters in McCreary County.
