Thankful Thursday!

Ivy House is a family mission! Thank you to these kids, whose parents serve Ivy House, for helping care for the yard at our little blue house before we sell it. We appreciate you!🫶

A special thank you to their parents for leading by example and teaching the next generation the importance of giving back!🩵
