LifeHouse Community Garden

Just past the library, across the street on the right is a sweet little house.

This house is home to LifeHouse Ministries, directed by Rev. Cathy Brewton.  In its brochure, LifeHouse describes itself as...

   "a nonprofit organization that is centrally located in our Ruston community.  Our focus is on the Spiritual Formation and growth of all people through prayer classes, individual spiritual direction, horticultural therapy, contemplative worship, community meals, spiritual movement classes, and more."

Behind the house is the community garden. The garden was established through a grant from the Lincoln Health Foundation.  

Produce from the garden has been used for community meals that are held the first and third Saturdays of the month.  These meals are offered in partnership with Rosemary's Kitchen, a favorite Ruston  lunch spot.  The meals are held at LifeHouse and are free to the public. 

The Community Garden also provides fresh produce for families in need through a voucher system in conjunction with Christian Community Action. 

God gave us a simple directive; "Love God, Love your neighbor". The Community Garden is just one of the ways LifeHouse Ministries is fulfilling that mission.

Love ya'll,

Never worry about numbers.

 Help one person at a time, and always start with the person nearest you.

To fold the hands in prayer is well, to open them in charity is better.
