Wow, Wow! Can’t wait to see you and it in person soon

let the countdown begin!!!
Awesome job Maureen! Wish we were there to help with your ministry but we are praying for you here. You have made a comfortable place for many the Lord will bring in. He must be smiling big Maureen!
So proud of you for listening and doing Father God’s will. You are one talented young lady! Love you!
I wish you were here too, but maybe one day
Ahhh…Maureen…..you have accomplished the task set before you with lots of color and flair! All who enter will feel welcome and delighted that they have this wonderful world to come to……….for reasons only God knows.
I continue to pray that “the God of hope will fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit….” aaannnd…..”that our God may count you worthy of His calling, and that by His power He may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith. I pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.”
I’m proud of you, Maureen!!
Soooo blessed by that! Thank you!
Maureen what a great Job you have done I like the african flavor.
is it all paid for ? are there still materials that you need ? are you fully supplied with everything please let me know
I should call on you to Decorate my house. hugs and i love ya sis
Thanks! I was sorta going for the African look, considering my past and where the kids come from
I only rent my place, so its an ongoing expense ;( If you are looking to help, all my support goes through my home church…check out the Donate Page. There’s lots of ways to help
If I were back home, I would totally help decorate!!!
I couldn’t have said it better, Marilyn and Judy. I add my “AMEN” to what they’ve shared. But I’m really bummed that we won’t be coming this fall to see it in real and living color. We’ll be there, there just seems to have been a delay in the travel plans!!
and you know I will hold you to that too!!!
Looks incredible mo!! Praying for God to fill it with His glory!!!!
Thanks, Jon! Thats my prayer too!
I love it!!! Awesome job! Can’t wait to hear more amazing stories coming from this place.
I can’t wait for those moments too! Thanks Andrea!

I’m totally in awe of what you have accomplished since you have been in Israel. Not just with the youth center, which looks incredible, but with all you you have done and continue to do!! May God continue to bless and provide and protect you and the many ministries He has given you.
In His Love,
Marcia

The place looks awesome Maureen! Can’t wait to see how the Lord moves in this place. I continue to pray for God’s grace and favor to be on you and this ministry.
Thanks so much, Mike
Mo – this looks amazing! Praying God’s blessing and many changed lives. You’re doing a great work! I think your mom needs to lead a mission trip over there next year.
I totally agree!
So amazing ..I’m impressed with the transformation and creative loving touch you were able to bring.. so excited to hear about the transformed lives that will occur because of your faithfulness to the call.
Thank you, Lisa!
Maureen it is so heart warming to see thru these pictures, your work for the Lord. Katherine would see it as so beautiful with the color, as is your heart. I think of you so often and have been sorting thru all the many pictures I have. Soon into photo albums.. Such great memories with you at her wedding.
Love and prayers for you, Lois
Lois, I have one of the pictures that you sent me of Katherine framed and on the bookshelf so I can see her beautiful face everyday and remember the amazing friend she was. Love you so much!
Awesome Mo! You’re doing such an incredible work. Praying for you and the hearts of those kids.
Thanks, Anne!
