"The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, . . . He sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners . . . " ~ Isaiah 61:1

Dear Friends:

We are in the 'thick' of things at Agape House as we minister to these precious girls whom God has hand-picked to be in this program. Your prayers and support are greatly appreciated ~ we could not do what we do here without each of you!

I pray that your Thanksgiving is a time of celebration for all that each of us have to be thankful for, including God and our families.

Pam and Ben
