August...Full 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 VBS
after 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, Vaseline
and lotions, soap, etc...It is Christmas in August!
How beautiful are the
feet of those who bring
GOOD NEWS!
This month we had one man
who 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.


Tabitha's Energizer
Bunnies!
Emily and Julie co-
taught the first grade this
month. After teaching all
day, they helped me
paint the tired ole girls'
lounge. They also teach
guy baking classes and
do Zumba. They even do
evening duty to give our
permanent staff a break.
They share the gospel
every chance they get
with our kids and in
Sweetwaters. They are
super women for Christ.
I will hide God's
Word in my heart....
Birchman Baptist Church
came to help us this
month. They ran a
wonderful VBS after
school daily for our
Tabitha kids. They loved
it. They also help
complete the
construction boy's dorm.
They scrubbed floors
until they shined!


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, each
grade recites Scriptures they
memorized during the
week. Doesn't everyone get to
have a huge wrestle off with
their school principal?

fans. He is throwing shot put,
