If you are going to be in the Atlanta area, we would love to put your skills to use for world mission right here in our US office. OM Volunteer Resource Manager Cindy Battles tells of some exciting answers to prayer among OM USA volunteers:

One volunteer told us how working here had helped her find a purpose after the death of her husband.

Another heard God speak “OM” very clearly into her heart and at the time she had no idea what those letters meant!

She concludes, "I am awed and overwhelmed at how good God is."  She would love to have you as part of our team, even if it is short-term.  Check out current volunteer opportunities here.

OM USA has a sabbath week

Staff here at the OM USA office recently observed Spiritual Emphasis Week, a time to get out of the office and into the lives of others. It was a week of worshiping God, serving the community, and just enjoying each other's company. This video is from a work day during that week where team members participated in work projects throughout the city.

Dog Days: week 5-oh!

Our five Saturdays of on-site outdoor work has finished. But our youngest crew members still want to come back! Demolition, as it turns out, is pretty gratifying. Here's a look at our last week, followed by an overview of the entire August Dog Days project. Thanks to all the volunteers who came out. The Lord hand-picked you to really be a blessing to us this month. The work done on Harmony House (our OM guest house) was an unexpected and much-needed gift from Northside Baptist Church. And everyone else who participated has been equally appreciated. We love our volunteers!

We look forward to seeing you this weekend!

Dog Days Week 1: Junkyard Dog Days

Dog Days 2009 started off with a moving day. Old furniture was removed from a farm house on the campus to make way for the structure's demolition. Pieces had to be flattened to fit in the super-sized rental dumpster. Can you say sledgehammer?! Join us any Saturday this August for more adventures -- and bring your yard tools!
