“On the first day of the seventh month hold a sacred assembly and do no regular work. It is a day for you to sound the trumpets.” Numbers 29:1
You may wonder what this verse has to do with The O’Connor House. Well, as you may have noticed on your calendars, this week is the Jewish Holiday of Rosh Hashanah, which is the Feast of Trumpets and the beginning of the Jewish calendar year. For the women in The O'Connor House, their time here is an opportunity of new beginnings, a time to start over and set their lives on course, just as some people do on New Year. Please pray with us that during their time at The O'Connor House, they will also set their courses toward Jesus.
As of today, The O'Connor House is full! We are delighted to welcome two new women this week. First, Leonni moved in on Thursday, and then Tracey arrived just today. We are so blessed to have a full house again—and we pray that we will be a blessing to each of these women and their children as well. Give them a warm welcome when you come by! They have joined Stephanie, Angelica, Nikki, and baby Jonathan who already live here, making The O'Connor House a very busy household!
Please continue to pray for our grant writing process. The application date is coming up soon, and lots of work is going into the application. We desire that God’s best would be accomplished in this matter!
Requests this week:
Brother LC51 ink (Black, Yellow, Magenta, Cyan)
Printer paper
Thankful for a God who gives us second chances, and grace through His Son Jesus,
