All Things Work Together

Please consider becoming a friend of Agape House on Facebook, as the girls make entries each week about their Friday events. It is interesting to see how they are growing in faith!

“We are assured and know that all things work together and are for good to and for those who love God and are called according to His design and purpose.” Romans 8:28


Prayer Requests
~ Pray for the girls to know that all things work together for good!

~ Pray for the house parents and resident assistant to have patience as the girls begin to find their way in this new world they are learning about at Agape.

~ Pray for unity among the girls in the Home, and trusting relationships to be built.

~ Pray for the continued progress with the renovation of the living quarters as we get closer to the goal, and that the necessary financing comes in to complete the project before Christmas!

~ Pray for healing for staff and volunteers, as well as wisdom and discernment each and every day to know God’s desire.
