  3. An update on Sis Henrietta Meyer:
  • Henrietta flew into Peoria Weds. to check on a condo she hopes to buy. She passed out and fell at the airport, breaking a bone in lower leg just above the ankle. From the ER, she was admitted to the hospital (OSF). They checked out her heart and she has a boot on her right foot. She is currently staying with Ed Baer's sister, Linda. Please be prayerful for a speedy recovery.
  1. Gateway Woods has a crucial need for house parents. As you probably know, Gateway Woods only hires house parents from within the membership of the Apostolic church. We are getting close to the point where we will need to turn away kids in need of our level of care due to a lack of house parent staff. We have not had a house parent couple applicant in two years. We believe our denomination supports the mission of Gateway Woods and that God is still leading people into his service. We would encourage couples/families to pray about this opportunity to take the gospel to young people and families who are in some of the most vulnerable places in their lives. This is a full-time paid position with benefits in one of the most highly rated residential treatment facilities in Indiana. If you have any questions, there is an information sheet posted on the bulletin board. There is also contact information for people at Gateway Woods who can answer your questions.
