Wow, what a night we had at our latest Picnic in the Grove! This year's bash was nothing short of amazing. Keep reading to learn all of the details about the fun, the crowd, and the astonishing amount of funds raised for REAP!

This year’s shindig at Fair Market was jam-packed with activities that had everyone buzzing with excitement. We kicked things off with not just one, but two cornhole tournaments - the GOAT bracket and the Billy bracket, creating double the fun and competition. The live music by Will Dupuy and his band set the perfect vibe, while the little ones got up close with furry friends at the petting zoo.

A huge shoutout to the Cowboy Auctioneers for bringing their A-game and helping us with the live auction - your generosity and skills are unmatched, and we can't thank you enough! We had over 200 folks joining in and we were thrilled to see so many familiar faces and equally excited to welcome loads of new ones, all eager to hear about the incredible things God is doing through REAP in India.

The highlight of the night? Our fundraising efforts soared to new heights, with a whopping $270,000 raised! This phenomenal support means the world to us and to those we serve, allowing us to deepen our impact through programs like the GOATway program, Springbuds, and our church planting efforts.

It was amazing to hear from our board members, Stephanie Land and Taylor Shepard as they shared their heartfelt connection to REAP and the life-changing experiences they’ve had with the ministry. Their stories reminded us of the powerful work we’re all a part of.

And let’s not forget the auctions! With seven incredible packages on the block and an astounding $71K raised from paddles up alone, we were blown away by your generosity.

To each and every one of you who attended, sponsored, donated, or sent prayers our way - THANK YOU! Your support is sowing seeds of faith across South Asia and making a real difference in countless lives.
