"Now to Him Who, by the power that is at work within us, is able to do superabundantly, far over and above all that we ask or think - to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen." ~Ephesians 3:20-21

 
Prayer Requests:
~ For the girls to trust God to pour His life into them and to resurrect the dead places within each of them, knowing that God is able to do far more than any of us could ever ask or imagine.
 
~ For the girls to see the glory of God in their lives, as they continue to work through their issues in life, and are utilizing the coping skills they have learned as they have longer family visits on the weekend.
 
~ For the families of our Agape Angels to also see the fruit of the changes they have been making in their lives, and to continue to trust God to lead them and guide them every step of the way.
 
Praise Reports:
~ For the girls at Agape who are finishing the year strong; this is an answer to prayers; and especially for one of our girls who had wandered away and has now returned to complete her work!
 
~ For the ongoing support of this ministry by the surrounding communities; this support is integral to keeping our doors open so that we can serve these girls and their families.
 
~ For the joy of preparing for our upcoming Graduation / Recognition Ceremony on May 30th, as we make plans to celebrate ALL that God has done in the lives of these girls. There is such joy in seeing these girls recognize what they have accomplished . . . it is priceless. We hope that you will consider joining us for this celebration!
