Update from Lisa Rose

"It's not what you believe that counts, it's what you believe enough to do." -Gary Gulbranson 

 

More than a thousand of you have believed enough that is possible for people to move from helplessness and crisis to being hopeful, healthy and strong. You have shown what you believe by helping create The Gatehouse and making a vision become reality.

 

Incredibly, since Oct. 11, 2013, the 61 acres of undeveloped land have become a beautiful community where ultimately 96 women and around 150 children will move from crisis to self-supportiveness.  

 

Eighteen families are already walking that path. And we will immerse ourselves this year in the discipline of slowly and orderly accepting women and their children, if they have them, until we reach full capacity.

 

We continue moving onward: Neighborhoods 3 & 4 will be completed by end of summer, and work has begun on The Hope Chapel, graciously donated by anonymous supporter. And thanks to the Jane & John Justin Foundation for funding a much-needed warehouse. 

 

Thanking God that He loves all of us so much that we get to do this for those who need a hand up. And, thanking you for all you've done.
