October 2019: Relationships (and Literacy Labs) Change Lives
Our boys are doing a service project this month!

Literacy Lab
Here's some things you probably already know...
Reading exercises the brain.
Reading improves concentration.
Reading develops a child's imagination.
But here's something you probably don't...
Reading for pleasure is more likely to determine a child's success than their social or economic background.
This is why we have the Literacy Lab
The Literacy Lab gives our boys dedicated time every week to develop their language skills and increase their reading proficiency. Not only that, reading will enable them to grow in their understanding of the word of God.
Special thanks to Antioch Community Church for donating all of the Literacy Lab computers and headsets. Your investment is changing futures.
Thank you for your support on North Texas Giving Day.
With your help we raised over $70,000!
Thank you to everyone who gave (or ate a taco at Resident Taqueria)
Taking Initiative
We help our boys grow more and more into the men of God they were created to be. This past month our program focused on TAKING INITIATIVE.
When God saw our sin, He took initiative. He sent Jesus to make things right. When we see a need and choose to do something about it, people can see the reality of God’s love for them.
Our boys will become men of initiative. Who see things that are needed, and choose to make things right.
Dear God, You created everyone in Your image. People matter to You! It is our desire to honor You and to show initiative. God, we can think of situations where people are not treated fairly. Help us to stand up for those who are being treated unfairly. Open our eyes, God, to see people the way You do and to treat people the way You want. Amen.
Thank you for your continued support. We couldn't do this without you.
