BUSY, EXCITING, AMAZING AND EDUCATIONAL

Hello everyone,
These two weeks have been busy, exciting, amazing, and educational.

Busy getting ready for the banquet.  Many hands were involved and the results were beautiful.  Nothing but positive reviews have been heard from all about this year’s banquet.  If you missed it, please know it was God honoring and life affirming with delicious food and great fellowship.



The night was exciting and the next day was also exciting and busy and two of us met to list checks and pledges from the banquet.  The total of all is currently at $46K and we are seeing additional donations come in still.  Thank God He supplies all our needs and blesses as the blessings are needed.

As I left the Center on Friday after getting  the deposit ready from the banquet I was amazed at how much still needed to be done per post banquet. But am now amazed at how quickly it has been accomplished.  Wonderful volunteers and staff pitched in and the list is almost completed.  I am amazed over and over about the many sweet people who give toward this ministry with their time, money, resources and most importantly prayer.

Educational?  How could this week be educational?  We learned many lessons from the banquet that will carry over to next year.  Every year the banquet gets better and better and we learn so much from the event, so if you have never been to one, please make it a priority to attend next year.  I promise you two will be amazed.
Another way we see education this week is with our nurses.  Two nurses are receiving ultrasound training and Nurse Becky is receiving refresher.  In a few weeks we will have three nurses who can perform ultrasounds, making it more convenient for a client to see her baby as soon as possible and therefore choose life when considering abortion.

Coming up:
Abortion Recovery classes will begin Monday evening.  We have 9 ladies set to enroll in these classes.  They will last for six weeks.  If you are interested in the next session, please call the office and we will get your name on the list.

Earn While You Learn Training is set for Saturday, April 30. This will be a time to discuss the policies and procedures for our EWYL classes and Bible Studies.  We will also be doing some brain storming on curriculum, hours and even a possible satellite center location for our EWYL classes.  If you are interested in helping with this part of the ministry please call and sign up for the training.  It will begin at 8:30 and should end at 12 Noon.

April is Volunteer Appreciation month.  Our volunteers are so precious and we want them to know how much.  Please watch for a date to be set for a Volunteer Appreciation event in the coming weeks.

Needs:
Vacations are also upon us and many of our volunteers will be out.  If you can help during the summer for just a few hours a week it would be so helpful.

The Baby Boutique needs wipes and newborn diapers
Prayer  for more abortion minded women and girls to come here first.
Please never stop praying for this ministry!
God is sooo good, all the time,

I see the work of Your Hands
Galaxies spin in a Heavenly dance oh God
All that You are is so overwhelming

I hear the sound of Your Voice
All at once it’s a gentle and thundering noise oh God
All that You are is so overwhelming

I delight myself in You
Captivated by Your beauty
I’m overwhelmed, I’m overwhelmed by You

God, I run into Your arms
Unashamed because of mercy
I’m overwhelmed, I’m overwhelmed by You

I know the power of Your Cross
Forgiven and free forever You’ll be my God

All that You’ve done is so overwhelming
I delight myself in You
In the Glory of Your Presence
I’m overwhelmed, I’m overwhelmed by You

God, I run into Your arms
Unashamed because of mercy
I’m overwhelmed, I’m overwhelmed by You

You are Beautiful, You are Beautiful
Oh God, there is no one more Beautiful
You are Beautiful, God you are the most Beautiful

You are Wonderful, You are Wonderful
Oh God, there is no one more Wonderful
You are Wonderful, God You are the most Wonderful

You are Glorious, You are Glorious
Oh God, there is no one more Glorious
You are Glorious, God you are the most Glorious
