CRAZY

Well, alright. Its been a crazy two weeks. Basically what the whole thing comes down to is Spiritual Warfare and how to fight it. Sometimes I feel so lost, and feel like I dont know what the heck Im doing. I realize that I was once a teenager, but honestly, you only hear about kids that have these kind of issues. Im actually working with them. I dont think the "novelty", if you can even use that word, will ever wear off. I know that sounds crazy, but Im serious. Everytime I think about it, I'm like, "WHAT?!" hahaha.

Anyways, the spiritual warfare part, I really just need your prayers. This is heavy stuff, this house NEEDS your prayers. These girls are dealing with some serious things, and its always a new road to travel down. Thank goodness Im flexible. :)

Please PRAY for:

1. Hearts to be softened
2. Lives to be transformed for the Lord
3. The Lord's will be done
4. Health and safety for all the bigs/littles

I finally have something to write and time to do it!

Hey Everyone!



This journey of LeadTime is proving to be more difficult than I could have ever imagined. Think of this: being 24 years old, and a parent to a troubled teenage girl... well 15 troubled teenage girls. Its SO hard. I think that I glossed over this difficulty, but let me tell you that it is so rewarding. When a girl comes running to me after a hard parent call, and falls apart in your lap, its most certainly worth every second of hard times. I enjoy the challenge of always being challenged.



Please keep me in your prayers... My prayer needs are:


  1. My stepmom's health isnt good. Please pray that she is healed quickly from surgery and that her brain tumor shrinks.

  2. That the spiritual warfare that Shelterwood experiences calms down, and that the Lord's will be done.

  3. That I have the ability to give unending love to all the girls, and to my fellow LeadTimers.

  4. REST!

  5. The Lord's financial provision. Pray that I will receive more support!

I would love to hear from you! Please email or send regular mail!
