Dear Friends:
"Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." ~ John 14:27
It has certainly been an extraordinary Summer as we go forth enjoying God's beauty all around us, while facing the reality of how Covid 19 is affecting our lives. I pray you are all able to cling to the truth from John 14:27 above as you navigate the myraid of never-ending changes in our lives!
At Agape House, because we provide a boarding school service, we are able to continue to open up our home and school for the teens as we have done in the past, while respecting the guidelines for a healthy, safe environment to all who come through our doors. Please continue to pray for a hedge of protection around the ministry and all who are participating.
Blessings . . .
Jan
Praise God For:
~ the ongoing work that has been done by so many willing hands and the work that is still taking place to prepare all of our buildings for the doors to open in a few weeks! It takes many hands! If you have time to help with painting, cleaning, landscaping or other odds and ends, please contact us at 262.275.6466, whether it's a couple of hours, a half of day or more.
~ the work that God is doing in the lives of the teens over the summer months. We have continued to offer counseling services, and have seen some wonderful progress.
~ His ongoing provision, in so many ways, of all that we need to keep this ministry open!
Please Pray For:
~ God to direct the steps and open doors wide for those teens/families whom He desires to be part of our program beginning in September.
~ our new school staff, Elaine and Stacy, as they prepare to begin the new school year, for their willing hearts to be ready to stand firm on who they are in Christ to serve Him through this ministry.
~ Positions in Girls' Home to be filled: If you know anyone that has a heart for God and for teens and feels called into the home mission field, please spread the word that we are looking for a live-in full-time house staff for the girls' home. They would live on site but have their own separate apartment with one other staff member. We are also looking for a part-time RA for every other Friday one week, and on the opposite week, for every other Saturday and Sunday (12 hour days and Sunday they would go to church with girls at Lakeland Church). Contact Pam directly at 262.745.1882.
~ our teens in the program to desire to know Jesus and accept Him into their heart, if they have not already done so, so that they might know the true freedom of walking out their days on this earth in His peace.
~ healing and good health for all; we know that so many are struggling with a variety of issues, emotionally and physically.
