There are places in our own country where people feel forgotten. Linefork, Kentucky is one of them.

But we believe no one should be overlooked—and that showing up matters.

This upcoming trip, Untether Life is sending a small team of 6 to serve alongside the Dr. Mary K. Bennett Foundation—a ministry deeply rooted in loving and supporting the local community of Eastern Kentucky. Together, we’ll step into both practical work and relational ministry.

We will be helping complete the final redesign of a retreat center—creating a space that will host future foster families and gatherings; offering moments where people encounter the love of God in a tangible way through retreat and refreshment. Our team will also host the Sunday church gathering as a team.

At the same time, we’ll be going out into the community:

Distributing food to families
Spending time in conversation
Offering prayer
Simply being present

Because sometimes the most powerful thing we can do… is not rush in to fix—but to sit, listen, and love.

This is the heart of Untether Life. Creating space where faith becomes action.

Why It Matters

This trip isn’t just about building something physical. It’s about restoring dignity, reminding people they are seen, and making room for connection. And the impact doesn’t stay in Kentucky—it comes home with every person who goes.

We need a minimum team of 6 people to help complete the final stages of the retreat center redesign.

But there’s room for more.

While 6 allows us to get the work done, additional team members expand what’s possible—both in the physical work and in the relational ministry happening throughout the community.

More hands mean more help.
More people mean more presence.
More presence means more opportunity for connection, prayer, and impact.

If you feel even a nudge—you’re invited into this.

How You Can Be Part of It

You don’t have to get on a plane (or even in a car) to be part of what God is doing.

You can:

Give – Support a team member or the trip as a whole
Pray – Cover the team and the community in prayer
Go – If you feel led, join us

Every gift—big or small—helps us show up with intention and love.

Join us in loving our neighbors—right here in the U.S.

Because presence matters.
Because people matter.
Because the Gospel is meant to be lived out.
