The GALA (our fundraising banquet) far exceeded our expectations!  The total donations were $172,000.  We, the Board & Staff, had set a goal of $130,000; the speaker asked for $150,000; so you can see the amount went far above what we were asking of God.

Pretty is as Pretty Does

When I was a little girl and dressed up to go somewhere I would ask my grandmother, “Nannie, how do I look?” 

She would smile at me and say, “Pretty is as pretty does.”  I would come back with, “No, no Nannie!  I want to know if you think I’m pretty!”

I’m a grammie now of three granddaughters.  I truly understand what Nannie meant.  She wanted me to know that how I acted was much more important than my outward beauty.

And the Greatest of these is Love

The word LOVE is used in so many ways.  I love food, or clothes, or shoes, or the farm, or the ocean, or red, or a movie, or someone.  It can be downright confusing.   What is love, really?

The Director's Heart- Sept. 2011

“I thank my God upon every remembrance of you…
for your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now.” Philippians 1:3,5
Dear LifeCare Partners,
My heart is full of thanksgiving and gratitude for the partnership we share with you, our faithful supporters.  As ministry partners, we share a special kinship, oneness, togetherness, and unity for the purpose of changing hearts and saving lives for eternity.
As a result of our partnership, there have been 198 decisions for life and 64 commitments to Christ so far this year!  Your support is making it possible for us to minister to a precious teen who found herself pregnant, distraught and very confused.  She chose life for her baby and came to us for support and guidance as she worked through the difficult decision of choosing between parenting or adoption.  As a result of her attending our adoption support group and making her positive and negative lists concerning parenting verses adoption, she was drawn by the Lord to make an adoption plan for her baby.  By the grace of God, He is helping her to understand that adoption is not giving her baby up…it’s giving her baby more!  She desires her baby to have a family; a mother and a father who will provide the security and stability of a loving Christian home.
It is hard to imagine a teenager having to bear the heavy responsibility of making such a life-changing decision for her baby and herself.  I wish you could have been there to witness the strength of this courageous young lady as she prayed, “Lord, not my will be done, but Your will be done for my baby!”  Through prayer and support, she has chosen and spent time with the family she believes is God’s will and plan for the future of her baby.  She is due soon and will be surrendering her baby girl to this special couple who will be forever grateful to her and the Lord!
Your support helps to make this adoption story and many other life-changing stories possible.  I thank my God upon every remembrance of you and the partnership we share for physical and spiritual life as we labor together to make an eternal difference for the Kingdom!
Partnering For Life,
Karen Brooks
