We thank God for all that was accomplished last year for the glory of Jesus — and now it’s time to RUN once again! The Lord has impressed upon my heart that 2016 will be a year to run further and faster than ever before. Accordingly, I’m expecting great progress to be made for the Kingdom of God!
As we’ve enter the New Year, we have lots of work ahead of us. One major area that we’re focusing on right now is Hope Academy, and the renovations that are going on in the classrooms. Pictured here is an example of the desks that we’ll be building.
These 3 desk units are going to cost us about $200 each, and we need 10 of them. Total cost will be $2,000.
Besides the desks we’re also planning to install drop down ceilings with better lighting, and there are several other important furniture items that are needed. The ceiling and lighting work will cost us about $550 per classroom, and we have a total of 4 rooms where the work needs to be done in. Total = $2200.
Then there is also our new building project for the boys home, which upon completion is going to free up new classroom space for Hope Academy. The total amount needed for the boys home is still about $15,000.
As you can see, there is lots of work going on, with all kinds of different price tags involved. We know God will provide, because we know we are in His will. If you’d like to help us with the funding for these projects, please let us know.
We’re looking forward to another great year, with lots of progress being made! Thank you for joining us as we run the race Jesus has called us to run.
For the glory of Jesus,
Mike Van Buskirk
