A huge shout out to Stateline Church for spending Sunday morning here at Walter Lawsons. 50 volunteers of all ages spent their morning cleaning our yard, trimming trees, and painting. The youngest volunteers painted rocks to put in our sensory garden and made cards and pictures for our residents. Thank you so much Stateline Church
