New House Parents

We welcome Chad and Angela Hart to our staff as house parents.  They will assume the responsibility of the Fields Cottage which houses boys 13 and older.  The Harts, who were married in 2003, came to the Home through the ministry of First Free Will Baptist Church in Dothan where Chad served as a youth leader and junior church worker, and Angela ministered in junior church, nursery and WAC.  When they expressed they wanted to do more for the Lord, Pastor Steve Trail told them of the Home’s ministry and encouraged them to look into ministry opportunities there.  We are glad to have the Harts and encourage you to pray for them and their boys.
