Elisha Houses Update

To bring your attention to what's happening in our elishahouses, here's a little update for your prayers...

Guys House - currently four guys. One guy has moved on and two new guys have moved in. Please pray for a deepening of their relationships with Father and with each other. The owners of this house have decided not to put it on the market! Praise God that we can continue to house the guys here! There's a fifth guy staying as a guest at the house at the moment. Please pray that a God would provide a good home for him, as it's not safe for him to return to his previous home.

Girls House - currently three girls, and one more moving in this weekend. One girl is looking for another place to live as she wants to live with her family. The two girls that are staying on are doing well. One of them is unsure whether she will move on soon or not. Please pray that God would make it clear to all involved as to what would be best for her in the long run. Continue to pray that the girls would learn to love and care for each other in a real and deep way.

Family/Single Parent House - currently a single Dad. He is recovering well from his accident - praise God that he has almost full movement back!  Please pray for wisdom and guidance for his future accommodation arrangements, as he desires more community life than what he experiences living alone.

Second Girls House - currently one girl and one baby! Congratulations! Mother and baby are doing well. Please continue to pray for their health and for adjusting to all the new things. The second girl has half moved out - her belongings are still occupying a room. Please pray that she can finish up well at the house, collect her belongings and move on to a safe place.

House for Betel - We were able to provide a temporary home for Betel, a Christian Drug Rehabilition group who's previous home in Marysville was burnt down in the fires. This house has been sold and settlement is in June 2010. Please pray for an adequate new home for Betel before June.
