Complete in Him



“You have been given the fullness in Christ”. Colossians 2:10

Prayer Requests:
~ Pray for the girls to truly understand what it means to be complete in Him.
~ Pray for the health and well being, physical, spiritual and emotional, of ALL students, staff, volunteers and their families.
~ Pray for the girls to be able to face their fears, and then seek God to overcome them. “For God did not give us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of self-discipline.” 2 Timothy 1:7
~ Pray for one of our students struggling with being here all day.


Praise Reports:
~ Praise God for the walk we enjoyed on the Lake Geneva shore path last Friday. We all travelled along safely; the sun was shining and it was about 35 degrees; and everyone enjoyed the beauty of God’s creation. We found a great little bridge to take a picture on (see above)!

~ Praise God for the students who helped to make a meal for the homeless men of Walworth County last Friday – it was a labor of love! The girls are incredible in the kitchen, and it was a privilege to have a chance to give back to others in need!

~ Praise God for the joy of seeing them actively using their knowledge to express themselves verbally, as well as in writing. Their creativity is amazing!

~ Praise God for the maturity we are seeing in the girls in so many ways, from the pride in doing their chores to completing goal cards to being accountable for their schoolwork!

~ Praise God for the girls as they encourage each other in their daily lives – it is priceless!

~ Praise God for laughter in the classroom on a regular basis – what a beautiful gift!

“Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, The LORD has done great things for them." Psalm 126:2


Wish List:

Renovation Update:
~ What a joy it will be when the living quarters are complete – please continue to pray for this process to move forward.


“Thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.” I Corinthians 15:57-58
