Exciting New Events...Coming Soon!H o n o r i n g C h r i s t b y s e r v i n g t h e n e e d s o f c h i l d r e n a n d f a m i l i e s

I am honored and humbled to work hand in hand with

the Sheridan House Board of Directors. Not only do they

hold me accountable, but they

also help our leadership team

determine the next best step.

One of our goals for 2012 is

to expand our ministry by

reaching out, connecting, and

sharing who we are, what we

do, and why we do it with our

community. Two of our board

members, the outdoorsman

Robert Taylor, and thrill-seeker Glenn Curran, thought it

would be fun to do so through events and activities.

So, next month we are kicking off 2 new events – a

Sporting Clay Tournament and Motorcycle Run. On Friday,

March 2nd, you can join us in Helping Families Stay On Target. All you need to do is meet us on the course

at Quail Creek Plantation

in Okeechobee, FL, with

your shotgun in hand. If

you are a biker, put on

your helmet and boots and

join us on Saturday, March

24th as we go Riding to Restore a Life. Both events will provide an atmosphere

of fellowship and camaraderie as we partner together to

make a difference in the lives of children and families.

I hope you can join us!

Serving Him,

A Note From Bob -

Kathy arrived in a borrowed car to shop for her 9 year

old son. She was so thrilled to be able to select gifts

for him since they had had a hard year. “If it weren’t

for the Sheridan House Christmas Toy Shoppe, I surely

wouldn’t be able to give him a gift this year.” Kathy,

an interior designer by trade, had been out of work for

a year and a half.

After she shopped

for free and had

her gifts wrapped,

two elves helped

her carry her gifts

to her car. As Rick Weber VP of Sheridan House and

Harvey Johnson Sheridan House board member

placed the gifts in the car, they offered to pray with

Kathy. Just before she got into the car, they asked her

a simple question. “Are you working?” Kathy shook

her head and explained her need for employment.

At our 2011 Christmas Toy Shoppe event for single moms,

God was – as always - working overtime.

When Harvey learned of her design background, he

smiled. They chatted for a bit and he asked Kathy to

send her resume.

You see, Harvey is the President and CEO of

Mastercraft Flooring Distributors and they were in

need of a designer. Kathy forwarded her resume as

requested; was called on Monday; interviewed on

Tuesday; and was hired on Wednesday! God is good!

There is no doubt Harvey and Kathy experienced a

divinely designed appointment that day. The Lord

orchestrated their meeting. According to Harvey, the

Mastercraft service team has filled an open position

with “an exceptional talent” and Kathy received

the blessing of a wonderful job in a Christian-run

company. Join us in praying for Kathy as she develops

and thrives in her new position.
