Teens Restore Local Park

Matthew 13:31-32

Last summer, a group of teens in a small town started a weekend cleanup initiative. It began with just a few trash bags and a desire to make their local park feel safe again. No budget, no press—just heart. They met every Saturday, picking up litter, repainting benches, planting flowers. At first, few noticed. But slowly, things changed.
Neighbors began to join. A local café donated supplies. The city council offered support. What started as a humble youth project became a movement—one that restored not just the park, but a sense of pride and connection in the community.
This is the mustard seed in motion.
