Next week Pastor Katelynn will be doing a HIKE FOR HOPE! 🥾 May we gather around her to pray, encourage, uplift and support her on this journey to restore HOPE to others in Berkshire County!

🥾❤️ HIKE FOR HOPE: STORIES ACROSS THE BERKSHIRES!

3 DAYS. 57 MILES. ONE COUNTY. ONE MISSION.

📅 OCTOBER 28–30TH
📍 VERMONT BORDER TO CONNECTICUT BORDER!

Next week, I’m stepping out in faith and taking on one of the biggest personal challenges I’ve ever attempted!

57 MILES across Berkshire County in just THREE DAYS! From Williamstown to Sheffield, with one backpack, no returning home, and only what I can carry! 🥾

❤️ OUR GOAL: RAISE $10,000 IN 3 DAYS!

This hike is part of the Berkshire Dream Center’s Hope Through the Holidays campaign to raise $20,000 by December 31. We’re believing we can raise HALF of that goal in just THREE DAYS!

But this journey is about more than fundraising. It’s about STORIES OF HOPE ACROSS THE BERKSHIRES!

Along the way, I hope to highlight local businesses, churches, organizations, and everyday people bringing hope to our communities. Have a story of hope? I’d love to hear it and possibly connect along my route!

I’ll be going LIVE, sharing videos, stories, and fundraising updates throughout the journey!

❤️ WHY AM I DOING THIS?

The Berkshire Dream Center is facing a critical financial season. We urgently need to keep our doors open, our building warm, and our programs running for thousands of people throughout Berkshire County during this critical holiday season.

Because when the need is great, HOPE must be greater!

Will you take this journey with me? ❤️ Through your giving, you can walk alongside me and help turn every mile into moments of HOPE for families right here in the Berkshires!

LET’S KEEP HOPE MOVING TOGETHER! 🥾❤️

YOUR SETBACK DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THE END OF YOUR STORY!

Have you ever felt defeated?
Like you made a mistake, missed an opportunity, or faced a battle you just couldn’t win?

Here’s some encouragement:

God isn’t finished with you! 🙌

In Joshua 8:1–28, Israel had experienced a painful defeat. But God didn’t tell Joshua to give up. Instead, He said:

“Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” (Joshua 8:1)

What looked like defeat became an opportunity for victory through trusting and obeying God!

💥 Your past failure doesn’t have to determine your future!

💥 The battle may be difficult, but you don’t have to face it alone!

💥 God can bring restoration where you’ve experienced defeat!

⚔️ This Sunday at Berkshire DC Church, we’re continuing our journey through Joshua as we discover how to face life’s battles with faith, courage, and obedience to God.

Whether you’re in the middle of a battle or recovering from one, there’s a place for you here!
