Happy New Year!

January

We are amazed and grateful at all that God is doing in the children this new year. We completed our first community outreach for the year in Fairview Homes. The children were so excited to share the gospel tracts that they ran most of the route. After their hard work, we enjoyed some free time at the park. The children have such compassion to help the downcast. We provided some hygiene bags to the homeless. These are experiences they will never forget.

February

We completed our Valentine outreach in Day Circle despite the rainy day. Thanks to the girls who assembled the candy/tract bags for distribution during their “girls night out” with games, creativity and fun. The community was overwhelmed with gratitude and joy at the beautiful gift bags and roses. The children returned to share their positive interactions with residents. These children are learning the art of giving and serving others. They were rewarded with a day at the skating rink. We completed another community outreach in Seymour Homes that stretched their faith to pray for someone.

March

We took a group to the trampoline park and beach in Wilmington. Yes- It was a bit early for the beach (we were the only ones in the water), but their excitement overcame the chilly water. The children are memorizing several scriptures and books of the bible. We continue to encourage them to store the Word of God in their hearts.

We continue to encourage the children in their artistic expression through singing, musical instruments, painting and anything that helps them to positively express their heart.

That’s all for now! Thanks to everyone for your prayers and support. We are so grateful and give all the glory to God!
