Intercessors

Teach me, O Lord, the way of Your statutes, And I shall keep it to the end. Give me understanding, and I shall keep Your law; Indeed, I shall observe it with my whole heart.
Make me walk in the path of Your commandments, For I delight in it. Incline my heart to Your testimonies, And not to covetousness. Psalm 119:33-36 NKJV

I met many wonderful people in Duluth last week. I learned a lot from the excellent teaching. And I had an opportunity to share about Glenhaven with several people.


Jessica and Stargazer placed 10th in the Mustang Makeover competition. They are all back here and doing well. The stories from the weekend have been awesome. Be sure to keep an eye on our "youtube" channel, Glenhavenvids. We will be posting video from the competition in the next few weeks.


Our 25th anniversary open-house this weekend, 30 October.


HOUSE-PARENTS - We have hired a couple Brian and Pam to train as house-parents. They need to sell their house before they can come to GYR. Please pray that this will happen soon. We still need two other couples to fill our houses with kids.

 
Please remember too, our current HP's, the Hardings, Swaffords, & Candy Davids.

RESIDENTS
:
Jessyca, Julie, Marissa, Anna, Jayvon, Justin, Stevie, Hunter, Luke, Christian
Brittany - needs guidance for her future transitioning.
We interviewed a young man yesterday and a young woman today. Both seem like young people that we can help. Please join us in prayer as we make this decision.


Thanks to your prayers many good things are happening here and we are all encouraged in the Lord. Even so, the spiritual battle is becoming intense. Our faith is continually being tested. We have been challenged to trust Him to whom all Glory belongs. We have been challenged to keep our eyes on the path and not on people. Please continue to pray that we will be ever focused on our Father and His Son, Jesus Christ, leaning on His Spirit for our strength.


Your friend,

Prayer List



Intercessors,

Praise Him for His mighty deeds; Praise Him according to His excellent greatness. Psalm 150:2 NASB


God is faithful. God is good. What more can we ask, than to be loved by the creator of the universe? Nothing! But still He tells us to ask Him, so we do. Please join us as we ask the Father to do a mighty work in the lives of our kids and in us.


HOUSE-PARENTS

Hardings with the boys. It is becoming a home and the boys are settling in.
Swaffords leading the girls home. They are doing an awesome job.
