2nd Annual Walk for Life Coming Up!
More and more busy!
We have been trying some new things, so I haven’t been doing a lot of the traditional newsletters! Look for us on Facebook where we have our own page now.
We are still growing! We have 170 clients now, not counting any of the classes. We have had at least 2 or 3 new babies born each month.
We present the gospel to each client that enters The Refuge. Some
accept the Lord as their savior and others leave interested in the gospel.
It is hard to know how many babies we may have saved, but I don’t have personal knowledge of any abortions that have occurred among the women who have visited us. We need your constant prayers as do the women who are our clients.

We have some exciting things going on in the near future.
• We are gathering walkers right now for our “2nd Annual WALK FOR LIFE” on January 21, 2012. We need team leaders as well as walkers. Please call me if you are interested. I hope to have at least as many walkers as we had last year. Every walker will be given a T-shirt to wear in the walk. This will help make a visual statement to the public.
• We continue to need volunteers! We barely have enough volunteers to get by with the increased amount of clients utilizing our services. If you are interested, please contact me, Collene Myers at:

The Refuge serves any woman who has a child less than 3 years of age through their “Hope Program”. The “Hope Program” is an earn as you learn program in which the clients are rewarded with diapers, baby food, clothing, toys and baby furniture in exchange for the time they spend in classes, attending church, reading books, and watching videos and DVDs.
So remember our location, 506 West Adams St., in Pleasanton, TX.

If you don’t want to volunteer at the center you might host a baby shower in honor of The Refuge through your church or civic organization. This is another great opportunity for you to be a part of this great community service to our future babies.
