Twas NOT for NOT
Last spring Security First Baptist Church had a work day at the JoyHouse. One of the things these awesome people worked so hard on was building a GARDEN! As it turned out, the garden mix soil was too hot and all of the plants did not grow. We got plenty of black eyed peas and sweet peas , and a few tomatoes and cucumbers but that was it.









Here we are in late September and its time to plant again.
Chris and Daniel came over and mowed the property and also around the garden area. When we got out there to prepare the garden..... we discovered that, not only has the soil finally cooled down, but the seed that was planted last March is producing FRUIT!
God is so AWESOME!

LABOR DAY WEEKEND at the JoyHouse
"Ark the community" returned to the JoyHouse and sproused things up once again. It is so great to feel the LOVE of the LORD through these compassionate people. God is so awesome!
We met so many different individuals today. Some were preachers, others teachers from the local schools, graphic designers offering their talents, CPS workers, young mothers and old grandmas thanking us for what we are doing.






It was so amazing to arrive back at the JoyHouse after such a long day, to find things so different and wonderful. Most of the trim has been painted and there is a new wall and cool new chalk board to write on.
Thank you!

Growing and Changing
Terry and Elizabeth Mann from Security First Baptist Church donated a wonderful corner stall shower kit for the JoyHouse Bathroom.
It is absolutely perfect!
If you are pregnant, the shower is so much safer than an old bear claw tub.
We need a few other items before we can get started on this project, but the JoyHouse is growing and changing everyday.
It is so exciting to see what God is going to do next.

THE ARK CHURCH BLESSES THE JOYHOUSE
The ARK Church visited the JoyHouse and blessed us by building a linen closet and moving a door and building a wall.

This makes it possible for all of the future pregnant girls to have more privacy and peace and quiet. It also makes it possible for the swe
et little baby who is currently living in the green room to be able to take his naps undisturbed. This makes for a more relaxed atmosphere for the entire house.


These wonderful people worked so hard and when they were done, they rolled up their sleeves and helped Krista and her son Christopher from Security First Baptist Church put together a swingset. It is so amazing to watch the Body of Christ coming together to support and encourage the JoyHouse.
It is not one church behind the JoyHouse, but the entire
Body of Christ.
Thank you so much
ARK family!
