Greenleaf Weekly is a mission focused family group. We practice traditional Quaker Christianity and strive to always be involved in a project that is spreading hope, helping someone up, and making the world a more connected and peaceful place. We meet to discuss ideas, and then swiftly "do" the ideas :)
We are simply Friends and Church Misfits that support each other in spreading light to the world.
Current- Fall 2025: Free PayPhone - Fabricate armored inmate phones into free payphones to help those on the street. Update: We have not gotten approval for either phone unit. We decided to install one for some Amish, as that will hopefully go a long way towards their income. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrclBmuPlN0
Current- Fall/Winter 2025: Shelter for the Journey- We are just about to wrap up the King House, a sister's boarding house :) Masking for paint started yesterday, and we thank all the people that have volunteered on this huge mission!
Current- Winter 2025: Stitch By Stitch - Homemade scarves & hats for the homeless & elderly. https://sites.google.com/view/greenleafweekly/home/winter-2025-stitch-by-stitch
Small Irons in the fire include; weekly volunteering at Heartbeats, a few are supporting an Amish family in need 1-2 times a month, vehicle repairs for working folk in need. There's always many small projects we (or sometimes just one) are working on. Some Small Irons have been running for years now, some are a one-off. As there are so many that we don't bother listing all of them.

Peace, Love, and Helping One Another.
