Never has a white pigeon made such an impact on a community! Since June 2025, a lone white pigeon named Tippy decided that one of our rooftops was home.

Despite many attempts to politely convince Tippy otherwise, he happily stayed — and now he has his very own, beautifully crafted pigeon coop thanks to our talented wood shop gentlemen! The full‑size coop features ventilation, cozy perches, a protected internal nest for cold days, a pull‑out tray for easy cleaning, and even a side door for feeding and watering. And soon, Tippy will have his very own camera! 🕊️🏡

Oh, what fun it is to visit, feed, and chat with Tippy each morning and evening! 💛✨

✨ The 2025 Acts Chaplains' Conference (Sept. 22–25) was a remarkable gathering that brought together all Acts Chaplains at the Corporate Services Center. 🙌

🎤 Outstanding speakers — all from within Acts, including several chaplains — delivered impactful presentations that stirred hearts and minds. 🙏

This conference not only celebrated the chaplaincy ministry but also reignited a shared vision for spiritual leadership across the organization. The days were filled with powerful moments of reflection, worship, and fellowship — a time of deep connection, inspiration, and renewal. 🤝❤️
