EXTREME HOME "SOUL" MAKEOVER [3]
I love that show. You have a family in need, people who are living in unsafe homes, raising their family through difficulty and distress. Ty Pennington and his group of Angels comes in with their motor coach and gives the family not only a new home, but new HOPE. A whole community unites to give aid and support to the family.
We can be new HOPE! Steubenville St. Louis Mid America has set up a scholarship fund to help teens who want to attend our weekend conferences. Not knowing the need, we put $1550.00 into the fund to help fund teens. We have been overwehlmed with story after story of teens who could gain so much from the weekend conferences but cannot afford the $155.00 fee. All totalled requests have come in for $4400.00. In praying about how to distribute the funds available I thought, "We need angels like Ty has." We need a community to unite to help deepen the faith life of these teens.
We will be sending out partial scholarships to each of those who requested assistance. Can you help us to give full scholarships? Can you be angel to give new HOPE to young people who desire to attend a Steubenville St. Louis Mid-America Youth Concerence?
If your heart is answering yes, then please send your donation to Scholarship Fund - Rosanne Twellman, Office of Youth Ministry 20 Archbishop May Dr. St. Louis, MO 63119.
If you have questions, please call Rosanne at 314.633.2506.
P.S. After I contacted all the groups about their paritial grants, even more requests came in. We truly need Angels!
