Glenhaven Prayer Partners

In chapter 5, verse 23 of 1st Thessalonians the Apostle Paul speaks a blessing to the church body as he closes his letter. I wonder why we don't do that? I do think that we should. I think it is a part of getting involved in the lives of our fellow believers. Paul talks alot about how this church invested in his life and how he poured back into them from his own life. Thank you for blessing us and pouiring your life into ours.

May the God of peace himself make you entirely pure and devoted to God; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept strong and blameless until that day when our Lord Jesus Christ comes back again. 1 Thess 5:23 TLB


We interviewed a couple last week about being house-parents. You guys are awesome! God is indeed good! Thanks for Praying! If we hire the Chamberlain's we will be full of house-parents. Soon we can be full of kids.


We are in the process of listing Hidden Valley with a relator. The boys are still over there, but will soon be over here. Please pray that a buyer will be found for the property.


The gray house is almost finished. Please pray for the stamina to finish strong.

Pray for the house-parents as they maintain a calmness in the midst of the chaos.
School staff as they keep on teaching in spite of all of this.
Each resident as they continue to work in school and on their personal stuff.
Rick & Dee Paton, volunteers, have returned to Iowa.
Dave & Dana Harding have left.
Dwayne Webb, I am actually enjoying the planning and still need prayer for open doors and more places to go.
We have a need for bunkbeds that are sturdy and extra long. We have some big boys and we will need them soon for the gray house.
Quickbooks is working on our problem as you read this. Please pray that they will be able to repair the file.

Every year about this time our giving slows down. Then by April we write a letter asking our supporters to pray about our need. You always respond and we are so grateful. This year we would ask you to begin to pray early and often that we be consistent good stewards of what God provides.


Thank you and may our Heavenly Father continually bless the labors of your hands and your knees.


Your friend,

Dwayne
