A COTTAGE INDUSTRY FOR JEREMIAH HOUSE
Youth at Jeremiah House are learning, developing and moving
forward with their lives.
Yet, this following question has been a big one for us.
"Will our helping actually help - or will it build
dependency."
We know the
youth at Jeremiah House have a limited time to learn Life Skills. They
are part of a family at JH and 'mom' Gulnara has been teaching them to cook, to
clean and to raise their chickens - which are now laying eggs.
Yet we
know youth need more than this. We offer them educational help,
counseling, and spiritual guidance as an ongoing activity in the home.
They have
a weekly cell group, assigned responsibilities and many more learning
opportunities.
BUT CHECK
THIS OUT! A NEW COTTAGE INDUSTRY FOR JEREMIAH KIDS!
