Art Therapy

This week a friend is here to work with the women at the Home of Hope in areas of art therapy. Rebecca works in India with survivors of sexual exploitation and agreed to come to work with our girls for a week.

Today we had the first session, and we felt like it went to well. We see God moving in the lives of the women and that is always exciting.

Will you keep us in prayer this next week as Rebecca ministers to the hurts these women face? Pray that God will bringing healing to their scared lives. Pray that He will take the painful memories of the past and bring peace and healing. Pray that they begin to see who they are in Christ and understand their new identity as a believer.

Pray also for our staff. Three of the staff are doing the sessions also. Pray that they find healing for things they need. Pray that they make themselves open and are honest with themselves and, therefore, God. Pray that God teaches and uses them in this week.

Pray that God uses this time to knit the women and staff together.

Pray also for Rebecca, that God's anointing would be upon her and that she would speak "words of life" to the women as she teaches.

Thanks again for your prayers.
