Happy 4th of July The Walk Youth Group oneneednow.com Building 229 Venmo: oneneednow Thomas County area ministry

We just returned from our 17th Annual Mission Trip to New Orleans Sunday night. This week, we were sent into the city—to Canal Street, Jackson Square, City Hall, the French Market, Riverwalk, and under the bridges—to love boldly and serve joyfully. We met Rhonda, who melted into a hug and later said, “I don’t remember the last time someone wasn’t afraid to hug me.” Faith, who’s preached her Bible from park benches for 7 years. Clara Rita, who gives away 200...

Thursday Outreach in Tallahassee So proud of our students today. Their boldness to share the love of Jesus is always inspiring. At a bus stop, they met people like Mrs. Barbara, who “adopted” us and cheered us on in the faith. They talked with a college student wrestling with anger toward God, a man facing court, another just released from prison, and one battling cancer who wept as he shared his fears. There are so many stories to share, but what they all had in common was a hunger...

Tallahassee Outreach on Friday Friday wasn’t loud or dramatic. It looked like laundromats, street corners, and a group of students quietly stepping into ordinary places, ready to listen and love. We believe what followed wasn’t random—it was God meeting people where they are. Some were full of joy. Others were carrying sorrow. And through it all, His presence was clear. Mr. Willie laughed when he saw us and asked if we were there for summer break. We told him we came to tell...

We are collecting sport chairs for the homeless as part of our 17th annual mission trip to New Orleans—just 12 days away on July 1st! For 17 years, we’ve had the privilege of serving in this amazing city, sharing the love of Jesus with those in need. One of the most impactful things we do is give out folding sport chairs—offering rest and dignity to those who often go without either. Last summer, thanks to your generosity, we gave away lots of chairs! If your family would like to...

Two Students Accepted Jesus at BigStuf 2025! In our 20th year attending BigStuf, we witnessed God move in powerful, personal ways. Camille and Gracie both gave their lives to Jesus—and many more students experienced renewal, healing, and hope in their faith. This year’s theme, “The Flip Side,” invited us to see life through a different lens. We explored how doubt, disappointment, and failure don’t disqualify us—they position us for grace. From Thomas’s questions to...

Will you help support a student on mission? We are so thankful for those who have given and are continuing to give. Your generosity has already helped students travel across the country to share the love of Jesus. But we still need additional support. This year, students from The Walk Youth Group have served in New York City, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. They’ve prayed over firefighters, comforted the grieving, and shared the gospel with strangers. They’ve stepped out of...

Yosemite National Park 2025 Los Angeles-Hollywood California Mission Trip

We just returned from our mission trip to Los Angeles—and specifically, to Hollywood—and we’re still in awe of what God did. This was our 35th mission trip in 20 years of ministry, and one of the most powerful yet. We partnered with the Serve LA team in Hollywood, who truly live out their motto: “Seeing the unseen.” They greeted every guest by name, making each person feel known and loved—just like Jesus did. Each day, we spent part of our time serving at Serve LA and the...
