The Journey Home in Murfreesboro uses day-to-day resources to care for the homeless and those that are struggling in Rutherford County to build relationships that offer hope, direction and the love of God. The volunteers and staff at The Journey Home have a saying, "Love God. Serve People."

This fall, The Journey Home is inviting the community to come together in a slightly different way... an evening of music and teaching, praise and thanksgiving, intentionally focused on seeking God's direction for serving "the least of these" in our community.

A number of worship teams from a handful of area churches that represent some of the diversity they see while serving together each day at the Outreach Center will be on hand to lead in a time of celebration and fellowship.

The date is Friday, September 16th from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The location is McKnight park (the field next to Sports*Com by the airport). Worship teams from Destiny Center, Fellowship Bible Church, First United Methodist Church, and North Boulevard Church of Christ will lead visitors in song. The event will be divided into segments with teaching and testimony between so families can come and go or stay as schedules allow. Concessions will be available as well as activities for children.

The Journey Home is gathering sponsorship's to cover the event costs. A love offering will be collected for ministry to the homeless and needy. These offerings, as well as concession proceeds, will be used to further the outreach, supportive services, and housing programs at The Journey Home. There will also be information about homelessness and poverty in Rutherford County and opportunities for guests to learn about volunteering your time and talent to provide solutions.
