The Lake

What a beautiful day to spend at the lake with wonderful people!

Bill's dad let us come out to his place and enjoy their lake and boats.
The kids had a blast swimming and boating and fishing.

Over the last month, there have been many times like today where I show up and look around at the body of Christ loving and serving together wonderfully and I just marvel at the wonder of what is being accomplished as many individual children are all being led and loved by Godly adults. I am so blessed to see the impact that these mentors are making. Thank you so much for being involved! You are truly a delight!

I say to the Lord, "You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing."
I say of the godly who are in the land, "They are the noble people in whom is all my delight." Psalm 16:2-3

Fun at Barneyville

It seems like there is a lot of change around the Peace Place right now... kids that have moved, new faces to volunteer (yay!), new kids to be mentored, summer fast approaching.... Praise God that He knows what he is doing and He is at work amidst the changes.

From everything that I heard, Spring Break Bible Club went a really well out here so thank you for praying. They had lots of people come love on the kiddos and teach about Jesus.
The Housing Authority does want to get a community center and something similar to Peace Place going in another neighborhood and excitingly there is someone who God is calling to lead that! What an answer to prayer. Please continue to pray as the planning and ground breaking work begins...more details to come.

Two weekends ago we got to take the kids out to "Barneyville". Barneyville is the home/ranch of one of our volunteers. We grilled, played baseball, fed cows, chased chickens, celebrated a birthday, face painted, worshipped Jesus and had a really great time! You could tell that the peacefulness of the place had a calming affect on the kids and the freedom to run and play in a place like that with Godly people was really good for them. Ok, enough talk... here are some pictures:
