Have you heard of May-cember?
It’s possible you’ve seen the word “May-cember”: that whirlwind season in May packed with school events, sports, concerts, and summer prep.
Whether you’re a parent caught in the chaos or just feeling the busyness — we see you, and we’re with you!
That’s why we’re keeping it short and sweet this month.
Here are three quick reminders (plus a summer theme sneak peek announcement at the end)!
Our full-time & summer staff are busy getting everything ready for you!
1. A place for your kids to grow – still room!

3. A Fort adventure you’ve never had before – May 30th!
Join us for Fort-a-Thon – a joyful day of fun, stores, and live updates as we celebrate 70 years of God’s work through Fort! Tune in Friday, May 30 from 12–8pm on Facebook and YouTube for surprise guests, heartfelt moments, and ways to be part of what’s next. And here’s a thought: if every Fort family gave just $70 in honor of 70 years of God’s faithfulness at Fort — we’d reach our goal! Let’s finish strong — together!
Check out the video below for more information.
You’re invited to Pause, Give Thanks, and Celebrate!
Every person has deep needs—some physical, some spiritual. Our bodies need food, but our souls hunger too. Psalm 107 reminds us that God is faithful to meet us in those places of longing. As you come to Fort this summer, come ready to enjoy not just great food, but also the spiritual nourishment God has prepared for you. We believe He has something meaningful and satisfying in store for your soul.
Our 2025 theme is “Come and Feast,” based on Psalm 107:1-9, with a special emphasis on verse 9:
“For he satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul he fills with good things.”
In the midst of all the busyness this May, doesn’t that verse just make you take a big sigh of relief? The Lord satisfies our every need, our every longing. This summer, we are going to take time to pause, give thanks, and celebrate the Lord and His abundance together. We look forward to being with you, feasting physically AND spiritually on His goodness!
We’ll see you VERY soon, friend!
