Special day for the pre teens!







The group of young teens is growing. They do Bilbe studies and from time to time have a special day. This month the had to dress up as some character they like. Their Study for the month was on character. The question was: How does God see you? Based on the Scripture that God see the inside and not the out side. We havea group of kids that are coming to church that have never been to church before. This is really exciting.

One of our workers gets married.

Levi and Katia
Katia is a young lady who has worked with us for a long time. She was saved in one of the churches John Hatcher started many years ago. we have known her since she was a little girl. She loves the Lord and has a special love for kids with special needs. She started her work by teaching in Sunday School. she enjoyed teaching so much that she decided to go to college. She will graduated from college this December. She had never planed on going to college until she came to work her at the home. God has blessed her with a sweet husband. Pray for them for God to continue to bless their lives as they serve in the ministry.

Everyday jobs and needs to keep things up











We still have the same families here with us. They are getting evolved in church and the kids are learning new things and learning about the Lord. We have had many new teens and adult visitor at church. Our boys and others that live here have been bringing some of the school friends to church.
Even though we don’t have many here now we are still trying to keep the building up. We have the day by day expenses and there is always work to be done on the building. Painting is always one of those things that have to be done from time to time. There are still some of the roofs that have not been fixed or changed. Also one thing that we have not done is fix the concrete sidewalks around the home in the front and in the back. Since the building is over 35 years old from time to time we have problems with water and gutter pipe lines. The water pipes are old and are galvanized pipes and cause leaks in the walls. We don’t have lots of extra money but are working hard on keeping up the building. We are working on the projects that we have on our mind. We want to do different things that will reach out to kids and their families. We want to have other projects that work the way the soccer project does. We have been thinking about jewelry, painting and after school support and some other things we studying about. We thank all of you for your prayers and support. Please continue praying for us and that God will supply for the needs we have.
