The Go Embrace Project offers a devotion time, prayer and a art activity to the residents during each session.

 Serenity Shell Project

This ministry was inspired by the painted rock movement in our country and created specifically by ARC to help spread the word of Jesus Christ. A gift that keeps on giving! The idea is to decorate seashells, place a message of hope (bible scripture preferred) inside or attached to them( TIP: Cut paper the size of fortune cookie strips, laminated paper preferred, use clear packing tape on both sides of paper strip and trim edges.) and hide them in various safe locations. In order to brighten someone's day! You can use paint, nail polish, sharpies, etc., with a clear coat sealer for preservation. On the back of the shell or write in Sharpie "Post a picture to FB: Serenity Shells- Myrtle Beach, SC". You can write "Keep me or Re-Hide me!" for the finder to keep for themselves or leave for someone else to find. Please be respectful of others property and businesses and obey the laws.
