Subject: Brothers United update

We have been blessed over the past few weeks with much help at the house getting the land cleared, walls painted and even some decorative touches. God has been good to us and even the rent is paid in advance to the end of the year!

The struggle to help these young men make their way in life continues to be a raging war. I have spent many hours sorting through sexual ussues, financial issues and much more that these young men are dealing with. There are seven of them in the house now and they are finding the challenge of living a God honouring life more than they expected. But He has called them and will carry them through.

Your cotinued prayers are what will carry us through to God's victory over the darkness in their lives.

My wife and I have been given a second house rent free for the next three years for our foster care program with the younger children. A gentleman in our church had a dream of branches being grafted into a tree. When he awoke he said, "That is what Andy does with the children, grafts them into his family." He approached me at church the next Sunday and asked if I was renting and finding it hard to pay the rent. I told him it was always a struggle but God was providing. He said he has a house and wanted to know if we would like to use it. It is a spacious five bedroom house on one acre of well fruited land.

We were so excited as God had just put it on our hearts to take in more foster chidlren as three of ours were now 18 and 19. Three more children ages 9, 12 and 13 move in on Monday.

God is good all the time and we give him glory for leading us on and showing us his love, mercy and provision every stop fo the way. Glory to God!
