On September 23, 2021, more than 300 of you joined us in Colorado Springs to 'taste and see' the power of hope in unexpected places. At this special event, guests walked through a replica of a typical TOLI community, coming face to face with the realities of life in the hard places we work — but also the beauty, creativity, resilience, and joy found there, too. Together we learned stories of restoration, transformation, and the power of investing in just ONE.
In response, you gave more than $105,000 to support TOLI's work around the world. Your generosity, trust, and prayers are an overwhelming encouragement to TOLI's staff and ministry partners. THANK YOU for your support. We are so grateful.
Here are a few scenes from the big day!

Thank you again for investing in the dreams of others through TOLI. What an honor to partner with all of you in ministry.
With gratitude and joy,
Abigail McConnell
Executive Director, TOLI
PS: One more thing. I just can't go without telling you about one of the small miracles of "Taste & See." After planning for more than 10 months for this event on September 23, we woke up that day to a sweet reminder that God was with us. The verse of the day on the Bible app — used by more than 400 million worldwide, mind you — was none other than Psalm 34:8, "Taste and see that the Lord is good, blessed is the one who takes refuge in Him."
Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt his name together.
— P S A L M 3 4 : 3
