UNITE Spring 2026
Have you ever wondered what it would look like if every youth group in the Black Hills got together for just one night of doing youth group together? That’s exactly why we created UNITE!
We’re inviting all middle and high schoolers to join us at Calvary Baptist for an epic night of worship, connection, and a wild color war. It’s all about standing "side by side" in one spirit and showing our community what it looks like when we love one another.
The Mission: We’re not just here to get messy—we’re here to serve! We’re asking every student to bring a new pack of kids-sized socks (sizes 6-12). These will go straight to families in the Clothe-A-Kid program at Love INC. It’s a simple, tangible way to show that you have something valuable to offer our community! The Details:
Date: Saturday, May 9, 2026
Time: 5:00–7:00 PM
Location: Calvary Baptist Church, Rapid City
Cost: FREE! What to Wear: Grab a white t-shirt you don’t mind getting stained and bring a towel! |

The Difference Between Reacting and Responding “Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry.” James 1:19 When someone reaches out for help, our instinct is often to react. A need feels urgent. A solution seems obvious. We want to move quickly.
But reacting and responding are not the same thing. Reacting often comes from what James describes as a rush of emotion, an unsettled mind eager to fix. Responding requires steadiness. It requires listening first.
At Love INC, we slow down on purpose. Before offering resources or outlining next steps, we ask questions. We listen carefully. We pray. Because when we move too quickly, we may address what is visible while missing what is underneath.
Transformation rarely comes from urgency. It grows from patience, trust, and thoughtful response. And that kind of response always begins with listening. |
