Most excellent! You should be proud of your church!

Thanks, everyone, for the kind words. The family was at church today and was so excited about the house. The 12 year old boy told me that he slept so good in his new bed, and he loved his room! They are the cutest boys.

Rgcraig referred to the prophet earlier. Lloyd Bustard was at our church about 18 months ago,and we had just put the earnest money down on this house and land, but he didn't know anything about it. We had already decided to make it the Elisha House, and then he prophesied that we would be doing a home for wounded and burnt out ministers. He had no idea that it was already in the works, so it was a great confirmation for us! No one in our church except the deacons knew anything about it before that night.

Sherri,

That is awesome! The rooms are beautiful!

What a blessing to the ones that will be able to stay here through the years!

Thanks for posting these, Renda! It was so much fun decorating and fixing it up!!! I just kept thinking about how blessed we've been in the ministry, and how some people have not been so blessed, but have been broken instead. We just want to make them feel pampered!

This is a terrific work that you are doing....and a very much needed one. I believe that you and your church will be greatly blessed.
