We join Lily Walton this week at the @themississippiartsandenter16 for the 70th annual @JimmieRodgers Festival and chat with her about singing, dancing, acting and her struggle with #dislexia through it all. Lily shares her road in between diagnosis and triumph & how she turned what could have been her biggest crutch into her biggest strength. What a truly extraordinary young woman!

We are on the lawn of City Hall this week for the 2nd Annual "BudNBoilin" crawfish boil in beautiful downtown Meridian, MS. Good food, drink, music & friends fill the streets for what has turned into one of the premiere events in the Queen City. Once considered a stale & stagnant part of the community, downtown Meridian has come alive after a push from business and community leaders in a massive effort to revitalize the area and is now touted as one of the state's best hidden gems! #BudNBoilin #crawfishboil #meridianms #mississippi #jimmierodgersfoundation #uplifting #inspirational #christianity #hushintherush #roadinbetween #missionscape This mission was made possible by our friends of missionscape: Glass Inc, Purvis Business Machines, Walton & Associates and by Marcello Cranes.

We are on location for the "Cruise-In for the Kids" event hosted by 'The Spot' (Special Place for Others to Thrive) organization & get to chat with some really great friends & families. Helen Gilmore & her grandson, Bryson Cash, share his sweet story of "A Voice for Bryson". Plus, student volunteer, Lexton Ford, tells us all about how a Lenoir, NC golf phenom found his way to Meridian, MS and how God is leading his way. Then we visit with Ashlee Porter, who not only has a special needs child herself, but sits on the founding board for The Spot. Such a fun and meaningful day! #cruiseinforthekids #thespot #neurodivergent #specialneeds #autism #uplifting #inspirational #christianity #missiononward #roadinbetween #missionscape This mission was brought to by our friends of missionscape: Glass Incorporated, Purvis Business Machines & Walton and Associates.

Join us as we take our new podcast, & mission, on the road to Rolling Fork, MS. Packed with pockets full of Love, Hope & Peace, we discover where God is working in the lives of those impacted by a string of deadly tornados that destroyed multiple towns across northern Mississippi on Friday, March 24, 2023. This is a story of their Road in Between - between hope & despair, between destruction & reconstruction, between the dark & the light and where God is leading the way on their road to recovery. #rollingfork #houseofpeace #christianity #recovery #pottershouse #missiononward #pavingyourway #roadinbetween #missionscape This mission was made possible by our friends of missionscape: Glass Inc, Walton & Associates, Purvis Business Machines, Marcello Cranes, Prospect Presbyterian Church, Mid-South Welding, Robert Barham Family Funeral Home & by everyone who sent in a donation.
