A Teen Residential Program and Community Counseling Center

September 2018 E-News

We would like to express a special thanks to Dollar General for providing their cheerful yellow bags for our girl's home to weave into a sleeping mat for the homeless. Gary, the manager of the Cove Road location, was delighted to supply the girl's house with another box of bags for this ministry project to continue on at full speed. On October 7th the sleeping mats will be delivered to the homeless through the Jasper based ministry, Holy Spirit Ranch, who have been ministering to the homeless for many years by providing a weekly outdoor church service in Atlanta, GA. 
The Joy House is hosting its first annual Pastor Appreciation Luncheon on October 23rd on campus. If you know a pastor that would be interested in learning more about our ministry, we encourage you to share this opportunity with them, or if you would like to share their contact information with us, we will be happy to reach out to them directly. They are also welcome to visit our event page on Facebook or to e-mail alison@thejoyhouse.org for more information. We greatly appreciate the pastors that serve the communities that we all love!

Pain includes the perception that the other person’s part of the relationship rested on a phony foundation. We may wonder if anything in the relationship was real. We may also wonder what our responsibility is with the other person, or where do we go from here?
