Company picnic at Hovander

Sunday afternoon was the company picnic for Roy's work at Hovander Park. They had someone who paints faces there, so, of course, the kids got their faces painted. Carson got a dinosaur and Gracie got a tiger striped heart.




They gave all the kids a bag of goodies which included bubbles. Here's Gracie blowing bubbles.

Rolling A Youth Ranch

Once a month my work takes the children of the residents to Rolling A Youth Ranch out on the May Road off of Halverstick Road. During the summer months the moms come too. Last night we went early for a hot dog roast and my boss said I could bring my kiddos. They had a blast!!!

They have donkeys. This is Gracie helping pull one closer to pet. This one's name is Shrek.

Where I work

I have been working for New Way Ministries as night staff for 2 1/2 years now. It has been quite the experience and has opened my eyes quite a bit. This program is amazing! I've seen many women come and go. Some get saved and others are not ready for it yet, but we keep praying for them.

Below I have included the mission statement and the website if you would like to know more about it.

Our Mission
To provide hope and temporary housing

for women with children

who find themselves in desperate need.

To provide compassionate care and counsel

in a loving Christian atmosphere
To give them hope and encouragement

to follow a new path of life changing action.
