August...Ful l Steam Ahead!

We continue to move forward on all fronts this

month. We continued to share the gospel on house

visits this month with one patient firming up his

salvation on house visits. Birchman Baptist Church

in Texas came. They provided our kids with a VBSafter school while they were here. Our boys' dorm

construction is complete so now planning for their

BIG move begins. Our interns taught our first

graders all month, helped paint the girl's lounge,

and are doing evening duty now to give our tired

staff some nights off. September here we come!

Buckets of Hope

It is so great to see the patients' faces when they

receive the Buckets of Hope the KY WMU made

them as well. These buckets are packed with fresh

linens, waterproof mattress protectors, Vaselineand lotions, soa , etc...It is Christmas in Au ust!

How beauti ful are the

feet of those who bring

GOOD NEWS!

This month we had one manwho thought he was saved

but when we explained

salvation to him more fully

then he said he did not have

a relationship with Jesus as

we described and wanted

that to change. He then gave

his life to Christ. He got his

first Bible too.

wonderful VBS after

Principal Wrestle-mania!

Thomas is hard at work looking

for a new Math & Reading

teacher to help students who

have fallen behind. He

encourages students to make

use of the revamped library by

requiring book reports. In

Friday school assembly, eachgrade recites Scriptures they

memorized during the

week. Doesn't everyone get to

have a huge wrestle off with

their school principal?
