Life to the Full!

“I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” John 10:10b

Prayer Requests:

~ Pray that the girls understand that God intends for us to have life to the full!
~ Please continue to pray for all of the girls at Agape to press in to their studies for two more weeks while working towards their individual goals so they end the year strong!
~ Please pray for the strength and endurance of the staff that we might reach the end of the year stronger than ever before; that we have a clear picture of ALL that He has been doing in and through each child’s life, as well as the staff’s maturing of faith and the ever-increasing blessings that come from obedience and faithfulness.
~ Please pray for our financial needs to be met as we come to the end of a school year wherein we have been able to minister to 20 girls throughout the year in the school and/or the home, and countless more in the community. It is hard to imagine what the lives of these girls would be like if they were not at Agape!


Praise Reports:

~ Praise God for one of our Agape Angels who announced in class that she is praying for God to help her forgive several people in her life – amazing! Praise Him for His patience and faithfulness, and also for the difference in this child as she ‘walks’ with Him through this life-changing process.
~ Praise God that one of our students is back after a lengthy absence. We ask for prayers on behalf of this precious child that she not lose hope in her future and the plans that God has for her.
~ Praise God for our stellar staff – we have amazing volunteers who faithfully dedicate their time for the girls each week. It’s truly a blessing to watch these relationships develop and the unique treasures taught by the staff. God is so good.
~ Praise God for the donation of stamps, apricots, snack foods and paper goods from Millard Community Church.
