March 2014

In February, I added a new ministry opportunity to my list: Covenant Hospice . God had laid it on my heart to pray for the city of Blountstown. Specifically, I was praying for God to show me how to start ministering to my town. I read an ad in the paper that said Covenant Hospice was doing volunteer training in Blountstown. So I decided to check it out. I have a few more trainings to do yet, but I am excited about having this opportunity.

For those who like stats, February brought:

  • 20 working days
  • 3 new weekly programs provided by volunteers - Character Qualities, Celebrate Recovery, and Self-Worth
  • 10 active volunteers
  • 31 hours donated by volunteers
  • 21 religious programming events
  • 12 Reentry Programming events
  • Monthly Attendance - 90
  • First Sunday Worship Service
  • 1800 miles / $300 on fuel
God has truly been good to our family. Pray that we will continue to hear God's heart as we seek to minister to those in prison and in our community. I am working on establishing a mentoring program. Please pray for this opportunity for believers to come along side these men to walk with them through their transition back into society.
