♥️🙏🏻 MY HEART IS BURSTING WITH GRATITUDE FOR SOMETHING TRULY INCREDIBLE!! 🙏🏻♥️
I honestly don’t even know where to begin, because what is happening at Youth Unlimited Huntsville-The Door Youth Centre is nothing short of extraordinary!!
I have been completely overwhelmed by the generosity, kindness, and love pouring into this ministry. Muskoka, you are showing us something truly incredible: what can happen when an entire community comes together for its youth. ♥️
Attainable Solutions have been working tirelessly on the finishing touches at the centre, and so much of what they have done has been generously donated for the benefit of our young people. This is far more than renovations. This is an incredible outpouring of love, faith, and belief in the next generation.
We now have a beautiful new electric sign, a security system, freshly cleaned windows, and absolutely gorgeous stone donated by Keystone Granite and installed by Blayne and his crew. Peter Zantingh ♥️also gave his time, talent, and creativity to make something beautiful for us!!!!! This beautiful granite post and all the trim on front deck!! I know he too has had donations of the beautiful stone!! I will post it all soon!!
And then there is Kimberly Dreamscenes Rideout who has brought so much beauty, warmth, and personality into the building. Her creativity is everywhere, and the transformation is truly incredible. ♥️
Every time I walk through The Door, I see another reminder of the extraordinary people God has brought into this ministry. Every detail tells a story of generosity. Every improvement represents someone choosing to invest in the lives of young people.
I have tried so hard to keep up with my thank-you posts because I never want anyone to feel that their time, work, generosity, or kindness has gone unnoticed. But lately, my attention has been focused on another very special place: Ronald McDonald House in London. ♥️
Our family has been working through a few challenges over the past several weeks. It hasn’t always been easy, but God has been so good to us.
Our babies are doing wonderfully, and our soon-to-be “sister baby” is taking her time, putting on her final finishing touches, and getting ready for her big arrival. We cannot wait to meet her. ♥️🙏🏻
While I’ve been here with our family, I’ve also been thinking about everything happening back home at The Door. Traveling back and forth but leaving lots of the front line work to our Youth Worker Rhianna! Intern Elijah and our many dedicated volunteers!! Who make all these great programs happen!! I am indebted to each of them ♥️
Different places. Different needs. Different circumstances. But the same faithful God working through the hands, hearts, prayers, and generosity of so many incredible
So, from the very bottom of my heart, thank you.
Thank you to every business, tradesperson, volunteer, artist, donor, and friend who has given your time, skills, resources, prayers, and love to help make The Door a place where young people feel safe, welcome, valued, and deeply loved.
Thank you for being patient with me while I’ve been quieter than usual. Thank you for praying for our family. And thank you for continuing to support this ministry, even while I haven’t been able to be there for every moment.
I may not have shared every thank-you yet, but please know this: not one act of kindness has gone unnoticed. So many of you have given quietly and privately and I see you too♥️♥️♥️
You aren’t just helping with a building. You are helping create something incredible. You are helping build a place where young people can find belonging, hope, encouragement, and the reminder that they matter.
That is Kingdom work. 🙏🏻♥️
I feel incredibly blessed by my family, by this community, by everyone God continues to bring alongside us, and by a Father who keeps reminding me that He is present in every detail.
Romans 8:28
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.”
Sometimes we get so focused on the hurdles in front of us that we forget to look around and recognize the incredible blessings surrounding us.
Today, I’m choosing to look around.
And all I can say is, THANK YOU, JESUS!! ♥️🙏🏻
And thank you, Muskoka. You have shown us something truly incredible. You have such a beautiful heart. Such a love for our youth!! We are in this together!!!!
God is good… all the time!! ♥️♥️♥️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
LOVE 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
