Dozens of projects and services were performed by hundreds of volunteers in Central Indiana.
- Light Construction at residential homes, playground clean up and bottle water giveaway at apartment complex were among the many projects in the Urban area
- Visiting Nursing and Retirement Home outreaches by the Greenwood and Nora-Castleton areas
- Gardening in Avon, IN by the West side area and by the Multi-Cultural ministry of FHL
- Continued effort of community restoration of the Noblesvilles area (Riverwood Community) and the Northwest area (Elizaville)
- At least 20 individuals have come to salvation in the Lord to date
There are dozens of untold stories of unconditional love that I have not yet heard. There are people that are part of those untold stories of unconditional love I have not had the opportunity to visit yet. Please send your stories pictures and video coverage to FHL, 8383 Craig St. Ste 335 Indianapolis, IN or email at [email protected]
Here are links to check out some of the projects and services:

The rain came during the first day of FHL Week and while I am writing this, rain is pouring down again. It seems like a symbolism of God’s outpouring of His blessings in our communities. Yes, God had and have been scattering His resources and His love everywhere. You and I have the privilege to join God in distributing His blessings where ever we go…bringing His Presence and Glory anywhere, anytime.
FHL Week is not just a week event but a start of continued flow of God’s grace and love in our neighborhoods.
God Bless,

Yesterday, we were baptized spiritually and physically. We accomplished what we were supposed to do…bringing His Presence and proclaiming His Name at the center of the state.
