Dear @WhiteHouse, my name is Rodney Smith Jr., founder of Raising Men & Women Lawn Care Service in Huntsville, Alabama. Through our 50 Yard Challenge, over 6,000 kids across the country have signed up to mow free lawns for the elderly, disabled, veterans, active-duty military, first responders, and single parents. With America celebrating its 250th birthday this year and me also being born on July 4th, I wanted to humbly ask if a few kids from our program and myself could travel to Washington, D.C. to help mow the White House lawn for this historic celebration.
More than anything, I want these kids to see how a simple act of service something as ordinary as mowing a lawn for someone in need can lead to extraordinary places. What better lesson in community service than showing them that helping others can take them all the way to our nation’s capital? I’d also love to bring my American flag-themed mower in hopes that the President might sign it, so I can later auction it off and donate 100% of the proceeds to a nonprofit supporting veterans. It would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to highlight the importance of service, patriotism, and the impact young people can have when they choose to make a difference. 🇺🇸
Dear Lord,
Thank You for bringing me into the month of June. I place this month in Your hands. Go before me and make every crooked path straight. Bless me with good health, peace, wisdom, favor, and success in all that I do.
Protect me and my family from every danger. Open new doors of opportunity, strengthen my faith, and help me trust You every day. Let June be a month of blessings, breakthroughs, joy, and answered prayers.
May Your grace be sufficient for me, and may Your presence guide me throughout this month.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
