If two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.
Matthew 18:19

"Let us pray for each other, for this is the best way to love one another."
Mother Teresa

Boo thought: This first week of the new school as been amazing. We've built kingdoms and castles in the woods, had wakeboarding lessons, made aluminum foil boats to sail in the lake, selected a tree to "fall in love with" and study throughout a year's cycle, learned a wealth of vocabulary words already, begun writing personal journals, applied scripture to every lesson and prayed without ceasing!
We discussed the advantages of friendship and two coming together to pray in agreement is one of those! The students were challenged to think of examples of strong friendships...David and Jonathon, Naomi and Ruth, Andy and Barney, Beaver and Larry! (A wealthy young man and a shepherd, a mother in law and daughter in law, a sheriff and a deputy, and two boys!) Friendships and prayer partners can be formed without social, cultural or age requirements.

Thanks to each of you who have prayed for us these past ten months for this school to come to fruition. The stories of what God has done in three days are amazing....a child suffering from depression released from that bondage, a timid student not wanting to go to school anywhere has made a friend she has played with everyday after school, and a young man walking up to a teacher yesterday after chapel time in our woods simply saying..."I want to be saved." Nine mothers have already called me in tears of joy of what this school means to their family!

We have waited on the Lord to put all the details of The Academy together and He has done it.
There are still enormous financial needs, but God has provided and will continue to meet our needs.

Let's Praise & Pray: Today Lord, we stop to say, "Thank You." I studied in Luke 8:41 this morning where Jairus cried out to you to heal his daughter...he was desperate for You, sweet Jesus. Our wants are many and our need is Jesus. Accept these two poems I wrote this morning, Father, as a representation of us acknowledging who You are. In Jesus' Name, Amen

Where there is pain
Where there is sorrow
Where there is sickness
Where there is despair
Where there is loneliness
Where there is fear of death.....Be greater Lord, Be THEIR all in all!

Wipe away the doubt...have believers shout!
Tell the lost, Christ paid the cost!
Your Father is waiting with open arms
to begin a relationship that does not end! Rejoice, for it is true!
