Thank You   

Thanks to Brad Kolle, Steve Jebbia, Blake Stephens & the Youth Group

for cleaning out & moving furniture in the office so we may share space with the family counseling services of our mission partners at

the Presbyterian Children's Homes & Services, led by Jennifer Maness.

*****

We are extremely grateful for all who worked at our Summer Day Camp or who brought supplies.

Special recognition goes to Erica Dallas, Bennett Updegraff, & Blake Stephens for going the extra mile for the children's joy.

*****

While saddened at his departure from us, we are thankful that we had this past year to get to know Stephano Barone, the Kolle's exchange student. We pray the LORD's richest blessings upon him as he returns to his home in Italy.
