June Campus Update
On Sunday, June 30th, we celebrated Day of Prayer & Giving. Thank you to all the individuals and churches who lifted up the prayer requests from our staff and residents. We are grateful to all our donors who contributed to the repair and maintenance projects/capital improvements here on campus. We are blessed by your prayers, giving, and support. We will have our final numbers from the Day of Prayer & Giving in the August Telegram.
In June, Wheeler Church of Christ from Midland, Michigan came to work on campus with 12 youth and 5 chaperons. They stayed overnight in Homes 3 and 4. The group completed many projects on campus including painting sheds, weeding, repairing sidewalks and drywall, replacing screens in School windows, organizing clothes for Annual Day, painting rooms in Home 6, and removing staples and spackling the walls in the school. The residents and staff enjoyed lunch together and played volleyball and 9-square. On Saturday afternoon, residents joined the youth group at Zao Island for some fun and later had dinner at Chick-fil-A.
Our residents had the opportunity to go on a field trip to Michigan City Zoo. The girls were so excited to feed the goats and see the animals. After the zoo, they enjoyed lunch. It was a great day of fun and laughter. In the next month, we will have a youth group on campus from Naperville Church of Christ. We are excited to have the kids here to work and interact with our residents and staff. What a blessing they are to Shults-Lewis! We are very grateful.
