Conversations on a Bench

October 9–10, 2025 | In His Name-Colleton Office | Walterboro, SC

In His Name-Colleton is honored to participate in a powerful nationwide event called Conversations on a Bench, a 24-hour livestream experience designed to spotlight stories of hope and raise awareness about homelessness.

For one full day, Executive Director Amanda Herndon will sit on a bench and share unscripted conversations with local leaders, program participants, donors, and community members. These heartfelt moments will shine a light on the realities of homelessness and the incredible resilience of those overcoming it.

Together, we believe every story matters—and this event offers a space for truth, healing, and hope.

Why This Matters

In His Name-Colleton exists so that people experiencing homelessness and those at risk have access to resources and guidance for spiritual, physical, and mental healing—ultimately leading to stable housing and renewed hope.

This local event is part of a national movement with over 100 ministries participating across North America on the same weekend. By coming together, we can shift perceptions, break stereotypes, and uplift voices too often left unheard.
