one foot after another

Good news!

This week, we received the long-awaited blueprint for the parking lot at the NuWay building! This has been a work in progress, and makes it all-the-more exciting that it is finally here. It is just one more step closer to moving into the new building. We are hoping to be in there by the first of November.

Once there, new opportunities will begin to make themselves available. There are exciting plans in the next few years, including an after-school program, a job training program, and a counseling program. The sober houses help get individuals sober, but sober living is another story. Hence the continued programs to help them get their feet back on the ground. Please pray for them as they face the long road to recovery from their addictions. And praise God that they're on their way!

"Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him." James 1:12

In my own life this week, I have to thank God for keeping me safe a few nights ago when I walked off of my bed... I'm not kidding. I am amazed that I didn't hit my head or break any bones. I apparently went sleepwalking. I stood up on the bed and stepped right off. I landed sideways on our wicker hamper and scraped the skin off the underside of my arm. It has been a rainbow of colors this week, but reminds me that it could have been way worse. Thank God that he protects us and even gives us something to giggle about for a while! (Tyler said he was sorry he missed it. Haha)

Thank you for reading and for your prayers and love. Be sure to check out the info. about the upcoming golf tournament in October! There are all kinds of ways to get involved!
