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.

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.
