April 5, 2023 – It has been about a month since we posted an update. It is not that we were not busy, it is that we were doing much of the same ministry.
First, we want to wish everyone a blessed and Happy Easter. May you be drawn closer to our savior and lord - Jesus Christ this Easter Season.
We did travel to an annual conference in Illinois and to 2 churches during this time. Diane and I have also been covering during the week, shifts in both stores as we are still needing to find some part-time employees.
Urbandale, Iowa
We have also been working on getting the REED Workshop Center ready to open soon. Watch for information on that in the coming weeks.
We are having a Grand Reopening on Friday, April 14, 2023. It is also going to be a Founder’s Weekend sale with select items that the founder likes (that’s me) on sale. If you are in the Southern Michigan Area, come on by and see all the great things we have to offer. We will also be offering, while supplies last, some refreshments from My Bakery a new ministry of My Place part of the Set Free Movement.
So would you pray for the following:
- Grand Re-opening and Founder Weekend and Sales at the stores
- The REED Workshop Center as we work to get it set up.
- Funds for the REED Workshop so that once it is done, we can begin to use it to hire folks who need some income and skill training.
We are scheduling church visits in the late Spring Summer and Fall so if you are interested, let us know and we can see what we can do.
