Which Way do I Go?

FOOD NEEDED:
~ Pray for food donations to come in as we prepare to open the Home for all the girls moving in starting on Sunday, the 28th of August. We’ll need fresh produce, dairy products and meat (lunchmeat, chicken and beef). See more details below.


Which Way do I Go?
“Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” Psalm 119:105

Prayer Requests:
~ As we begin a new school year next Wednesday, pray that our Agape Angels learn that God promises to use His Word to instruct each one of us in the way we are to go, one step at a time. They no longer have to wander in the dark.

~ Pray for the spirits of each of the girls preparing to come to Agape Home and School to be touched with a sense of peace and comfort so that they know without a doubt this is where they are meant to be. Please also pray that they see this as a privilege to take part in this program (and not as a punishment).

~ Pray for peace for the staff as we prepare to start the new year with more new girls at one time then we have ever had before.

~ Pray for supernatural learning for the staff with regard to the needs of each one of our new girls, and wisdom as to how to meet those needs on a daily basis.

~ DO YOU LOVE SPORTS AND KIDS? If so, we are looking for a few volunteers who will each teach a 6- to 9-week session of PE for our girls on Monday afternoon from 1:45 to 3:00 p.m. We already have one person to oversee the program; we just need others to take a turn and come along side with your talents. Contact Jan at 262-275-6466.

Ways to Help at this time:
~ Volunteer who would be able to teach the girls how to use Microsoft Office software, with the goal of earning a full credit for the class.

~ Volunteer to weed and maintain our gardens in front of the school. We’ll need someone to thin the plants out this Fall, and give them some tender loving care throughout the season.

~ Volunteer to repair stained glass.

~ Sponsor a girl here; we have several girls that come from single parent families that have no money.

~ Provide finances to expand our counseling program. Our goal for 2011 is to open a Christian Biblical-based counseling center that operates on a sliding fee so no one is turned away because of finances. We are looking at renting some space close by so we can have more offices and praying for the funding for the rent and to pay the counselor’s.

Bring in your Campbell’s labels and Box Tops for Education - ask family and friends to help as well.
