Back to School

PICTURED ABOVE: CELEBRATING BACK TO SCHOOL !!
We are excited to welcome new students, Morgan and Allison. We also welcome new staff:Pam Hoyord and Misty Jaeger as classroom supervisors and Elizabeth King, Counselor.


We are awaiting with eager anticipation to open the Teen Home. We have staff in place, houseparents Jim & Becky Lambiris and Resident Assistant, Christina Hunt.


Now, more than ever we need your prayers for God to provide the $15,000 additional funds (above our needed amount of $3000/wk to cover expenses) so that we can purchase the furniture and complete the dorms.


IMMEDIATE NEEDS:


A wood door (separates offices from houseparents quarters)

Funds for bunk beds 6 @ $150 each

Funds for dressers 12 @ 100 each


We also have an extensive list of items needed for the school hot lunch program. Please contact Jan at 262-394-5043.


School prayer requests:


· God’s continued presence in every aspect at Agape School
· All volunteers, staff and families
· Liz King for her Dad and family
· Every student and their family
· Incoming students


Thank you for your faithfulness in prayer and support !! We are so excited at what God is doing....a new student accepted Christ yesterday. How awesome is that ??? Our counselor, Liz King was on an early morning walk and found a brand new rug on the side of the street. It just "happens" to match (exact same rug) the area rug in the school foyer and just "happened" to be a rug runner (complete with rug tape on the back) that we needed to go down the entry way stairs !! God is definitely able to do exceeding and abundantly beyond what we could ever surmise. Each week as we go to pay the bills, we see His provision. We were blessed when our general contractor informed us that the Lord told him to pay for a door that was needed and cost thousands of dollars.


If you or anyone you know would like to help out in any way, please contact us. We have work days (just about every day now) and we are still registered at Target, Wal-Mart, ShopKo, and Kohl's for items needed for the dorms.
