It has been entirely too long since I last posted. I assure you that there has been plenty going on at First Indian Church in the last few months. We have made significant progress in the youth building, the heat and air system is fully functioning in half of the building, which is a wonderful blessing in the middle of summer! Much of the painting has been completed, the uneven asphalt in the youth room was removed by way of jackhammers this past Saturday, and there are work and witness groups coming in the next two weeks that will hopefully finish up much of the work.
We have been running a Kids Club this Summer, which has been fun and tiring! The Church hired several teens to work at the Kids Club which is proving to be a good experience. We also have some new volunteers from OKC First Church who are teaching some classes at Kids Club.
Our gardens are doing well, having lots of fun watching the plants grow and produce. The weeds are a bit out of control most of the time, but there are often people from the community who stop in to help tend the garden when I am there working, which is a blessing.
There is much to pray about in the lives of those in our community, the following are a few ways that you can pray for us:
- Release from the bondage of addictions
- Wisdom for parents who are faced with significant challenges every day
- Funding to hire staff to provide services in the community
- Upcoming After School Program and new Director- Jean Marie Hill
Will post more soon...
