25 Years of ER: Moving Memories "One experience I’ll never forget is standing in a cemetery in the Philippines where families are living and children are growing up among the graves. I've seen firsthand the difficult places where people live, including garbage dumps, the streets, and other environments marked by extreme hardship. "Witnessing these realities is difficult. But in each of these places, I am reminded that people are not defined by where they live, but by the dignity, worth and potential God provides them. He has called us to respond. "What makes ER’s story so meaningful over the past 25 years is the countless people who are part of it. Some of you have stood in these same places, met these families, and formed relationships that continue. "You give, pray, or serve in ways that allow our teams to walk alongside children and families year after year. Together, we create opportunities where people are seen, loved, and encouraged to dream. Lives are being changed! "As I look toward the next 25 years, I’m grateful for what we’ve accomplished together and excited for the lives still to be transformed. I’m especially grateful our founders bravely said 'yes' to going where God was leading them. None of this would have been possible without that first step of faith." –� Brad and Stephanie McKenna #CalledToServe #BuiltToLast #extremeresponse
