Over the years, serving others in the name of the Lord has always been a passion for Ed & Lil Buck.  From walking across the street to help an unknown neighbor carry in sheet rock to driving great distances to pick up stranded relatives and friends, helping others has always come naturally.  So, when a family cruise vacation went through a change in itinerary to avoid Hurricane Katrina and a nephew needed help rebuilding his mobile home after Hurricane Rita (all of this within a month of each other in 2005), the “A.N.T.S.” portion of “Help Is On The Way” was on it’s way to being a ministry.

Reassignment in the way of retirement and a move from the Denver metro area to Sterling in Northeast Colorado opened the doors to new adventures in serving.  After about three years of trying to figure out what direction God was sending them, Ed and Lil knew immediately that this was what God had in mind.

As you navigate this website, you will see stories and pictures of how the ministry serves others.  You will see testimonies from both those that have been helped and those that have helped.  We pray you will be touched and you will be moved to pray, serve or contribute financially for this ministry.
