In January we recognized the contributions of our mentors and substitute mentors. This month we wish to recognize the third essential component of our Kids Hope team: our prayer partners.
Currently we have 14 faithful prayer partners who are matched with a specific mentor and child. They support our mentors by praying for them and the child to whom they are assigned. We also have a group of 10 dedicated unassigned prayer partners who pray for the Hope Church Kids Hope program as a whole.
Prayer Partners who are assigned to a specific mentor and child are Ann Anderson, Suzanne Buteyn, Jan Fike, Shannon Kalmink, Norma Killilea, Judy Mastenbrook, Kari Miller-Fenwood, Rachelle Oppenhuizen, Stan Rock, Jane Schuyler, Dorothy Sherburne, Jan Smith, Eloise Van Heest and Gordon Wiersma.
Prayer Partners who pray for this ministry as a whole are Randy Braaksma, Joanne Brooks, Ruth Hoekstra-Telgenhof, Stephanie Krom, Char Laman, Earl Laman, Karen Mulder, Nancy Rock, Jill Russell and Nancy VandeWater.
If this sounds like a way in which you might like to become involved with Hope Church Kids Hope, please contact Anne Duinkerken or Barbara Joldersma, or call the Hope Church office at (616) 392-7947.
