"Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves." ~ Philippians 2:3

Prayer Requests:
~ For the girls to humble themselves and do nothing for selfish reasons; rather, that they think of others as better then themselves, and know the freedom of trusting God to help them see the joy of living their lives this way.

~ For the girls to continue to turn to God for all that they need, and to make time to spend in His word.

~ For the girls who are going home for the longer weekend, that they enjoy time with their families, and recognize all that God has provided for them.

Praise Reports:
~ For the joy of seeing how beautifully the girls served our volunteers and staff at a luncheon this week to thank our volunteers!

~ For the way that prayers are being answered as the girls continue to work through issues, and see how much God does care about them!

~ For the donation from Rotary Club of Lake Geneva of needed art supplies, cash and a Shark wood floor cleaner; as well as various snacks and foods from other donors!
