Way to Go, Team Eden!

What a great day at Muncie Mission's Walk a Mile in My Shoes 2025!
Team Eden was out in force on this chilly but thankfully dry Saturday morning. We also had two brand new Team members - Oakley and Boone were bundled up and great little troopers for the cause!
The Mission blew past their goal of $150,000 to just over $179,000! Thank you to all who supported them in their efforts to end homelessness.

Indiana Landmark Training Complete!
This past Saturday, Eden had another Team busy at work completing the Indiana Landmarks program to further enable us to love, invest in, and inspire our community to follow Jesus. Team members Michael Shaffer, Diane Russell, Kaleigh Richardson, and Bry Friend joined Pastor Tammy on this journey to help secure funds to keep our historic building serving the surrounding area for decades to come!

Further update to come - stay tuned!

Praise, Prayers, & Pause
a weekly look at things we can pray about together as a church family.
This week's entry highlights Eden's Trustees and others who help keep our campus beautiful.

Welcome to Praise, Prayers, & Pause,
Praise - This week, let us thank God for Eden's Trustees, led by Paul Russell and Phil Schink. They keep our building up to code and in good repair, and our campus exterior looking great. The Trustees, along with others who willingly pitch in, take on projects big and small so that church family and visitors alike might enjoy our church home.
​
Prayers - Let us pray that God will continue to bless the Trustees and all who help keep Eden looking great. They are such a blessing! Let us also ask God to encourage the hearts of others to join in this powerful part of our Ministry life.
​
Pause - Take a pause today - even if it's just for one hour - from something that keeps you from spending time with God. Whether it's your phone or the television or other technology, give yourself a break from them and get quiet.
​
Let us know if you've got a ministry, person, or situation you'd like us to include!
