God is With Us

“The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.” Zephaniah 3:17


Prayer Requests:
~ Pray that all the girls know God is with us and how much He delights in us!

~ Pray for one of our former students who needs to make adult choices, even though she is still a child; pray for an army of angels to guide and protect her.

~ Pray that God brings us a Resident Assistant so that we can accept new students into the Home.

~ Pray for this last week or so of planning and preparation to go smoothly for the staff; and that God will bring us all the volunteers we need in His timing, while we ‘be still’.

~ Pray for God to bring the young girls He knows will benefit from Agape School and Home; and that the girls who are returning from last year have a peace and excitement about coming back to school.

~ Pray for the upcoming Trifecta Golf Challenge as follows:

• Golfers to attend and a beautiful days' weather for the event
• Pray for the dinner, as well as the silent and live auctions to be well-attended
and successful
• Pray for the families that are ministered to by these 3 organizations: Agape House and School; Atlas; and Army of One.
If any of you have any questions, or may be interested in golfing or attending the dinner this year, please do not hesitate to contact Jennifer Myers at Geneva National at 262-245-7041 or via e-mail: jmeyers@gnresort.com.
