It’s been over a month since we last posted – and that’s because we’ve been too busy! We had a youth group from Huntsville, TX come up the last week of June, and a group from Frisco come here the week of July 19. Both put on our ever popular “Week of Fun” on all […]
Summer is underway, and we’ve already had an eventful first month – with more action on the way. We kicked off the summer fun with the Hillside Student Ministry. They brought games, water, bounce houses, and lots of new friends. They even brought the Amarillo Fire Department to Cathy’s Pointe to cool us off from […]
The school year is quickly wrapping up. The kids are enjoying spring weather, learning about the life of Joseph, and are asking every week when we can start bringing water balloons. As the weather warms up (or rain continues to fall), we’re hoping our apartment communities will allow us to start meeting indoors again. Cathy’s […]
We spent the last month going through the Easter story and handing out Easter good bags to all our kids. We’ve started a new series on the story of Joseph. And we loved every minute of the sunny spring weather that came our way (even if it was sandwiched by snow and drizzly rain).
We’re still rolling along and eagerly waiting for the chance to be able to use the indoor space at our apartment communities. We’ve battled cold, snow, and lots of wind the past few weeks – and have also experienced some beautiful days for meeting outside. Regardless, we’ve been having fun, and the kids have been […]
It has been quite the start of the year for us! We’re still not able to meet indoors on any of our properties. We’re hoping that changes within the next couple months. But since the apartments we work in are managed my groups outside of Amarillo, those decisions won’t be made based just on Amarillo’s […]
Because of the generosity of so many of you, we were able to provide Christmas gifts to 114 kids from 40 of our families in need. In addition to that, we were able to connect many more of our North Grand Villas and Cathy’s Pointe families to the Sharing Tree Christmas Outreach down the road […]
The past couple of years, we’ve partnered with Hillside Church North Grand Campus and their Sharing Tree Christmas store to help our families with gifts for their kids. Due to Covid restrictions, we’re not able to do that in the same way we normally would. Hillside is still providing gifts for a large number of […]
From Brooks: A couple of weeks ago, I got a text while I was eating lunch. It came from a young man who I met when he was just a middle schooler 15 years ago. We’ve stayed in touch through the years. We talked quite a bit over the summer after he was arrested and […]
We’ve settled in to our normal, familiar routine now that school is back in session. Since we’re still required to meet outside, we’ve had to get creative with some of our crafts and games, especially due to the fact that Amarillo is just about the windiest place in the country! But other than the wind, […]
