Hammer Down!

New programs, new kids, new staff, a new school year! Thats what we are in the middle of right now. Our school year start up is off to a great start and I am excited about the number of children we are going to be able to impact for the Lord!
We live in a time where it seems families are going to extremes, either they are spending $1,000 of dollars going and coming, dressing and traveling to everything little 9 yr old johnny does or they have not got the time to give him an hour each week for boy scouts. The first is creating children who do not understand the worth and cost of life and have a tendancy to see things in a self centered manner. Notice I said "tendancy". The later creates children who have no expectations for their future, who have no aspirations, narrow mindedness which also creates a self centeredness. Isn't it interesting that each avenue creates a selfish mode of operandi!
We are trying to divert that dangerous way of living, offering children and volunteers a new way of life...one where giving comes before getting, where helping others comes before being helped!

Thank you for allowing us to do what we do!

more to come!
