Love at all times

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” 2 Corinthians 5:17

Prayer Requests
~ Pray for the girls to know they are a new creation in Christ if they accept Him into their lives!

~ For continued healing in all of the girls at Agape. Hurts run deep and wounds are soothed and made whole with the balm of His Word. We pray that the girls will realize that they are loved. Know that His love for them is eternal, and that He understands all that they are going through and knows what is best for us at all times.

~ For continued leadership in several girls in the classroom setting. For the confidence
to speak the truth in love, without fear.

~ For headaches, colds and sickness to go away.

Praise Reports:
~ For the donation of some wonderful library books from Community Church in Elkhorn!

~ For a girl growing stronger in her walk with the Lord, and another who appears to be opening up to God!!!

~ For an incredible staff, volunteers and new volunteers. God's timing is perfect and He sends exactly who and what we need right on time!

~ For Jim, our math tutor and the relationships he's developing with the girls.

~ For the gift of laughter and the joy the staff experiences when the girls laugh and experience pleasure through humor.

~ For the accomplishments of the girls in their PACE work, counseling and dealing with difficult issues.
