Ministry in South Dallas is an ever-changing landscape of families that move in and out often. Some children we’ve worked with for years may continue with us for several more years or may move out next week.

We make plans but God carries His plans out – and does it very well!
My ministry partner, Leeann Deutsch, had returned home to phone messages from her family: her mom was in the hospital, facing surgery as soon as she was stable enough. Leeann, as her mother’s DPOA, had certain responsibilities that she tried to carry out by phone, but the time came when she felt God was directing her to go home and asked that I accompany her.

Recently, I was with one of our key people in our mission. This person is responsible for the care and shepherding of a large section of our field staff, and we were talking about the business and strategy. Continue
