Hope You All Had A Happy New Year!

I have been exceptionally busy!
I just sent out contribution reports to all of you wonderful supporters. Thanks also to all of you who have prayed for us and given to The Refuge in so many other ways.
Needed ASAP
We are working on getting settled into our new place. We still need a couple of ladies or other groups to decorate the counseling rooms. They are stark at present. I will include a picture for you to see what I mean. This is crucial and needs to be done ASAP, because we will be opening in 4 weeks. Thanks to all the great donations we received from the doctor in Granbury, we have all the furniture we need to furnish the rooms. They just need dressing up a bit (drapes, wall hangings, end or corner tables, and etc). Of course if you have other furniture you would
like to decorate with, we will be excited to discuss it with you.


Ooops! We also need at least two TV/DVDs for the counseling rooms and some people willing to purchase bundles of DVDs (cost of 5 approximately $100.00)
We are located in Poteet just a block from the school at 815 School Drive. It is an excellent location and has parking between our office and the dental office, which makes it difficult for anyone to know if a client’s car is there for us or the dentist. (See pictures below.)


PS The Parking lot also needs work.











Exciting News
We signed a contract on a lot in Pleasanton to build on. It is an excellent location as well, less than a block from Pleasanton High school. We have enough money to purchase the lot, but we will need more money to build. We have two donors, standing by waiting to contribute
a total of $50,000 in matching funds toward the building of a home for The Refuge Atascosa Pregnancy Care Center. If you contribute toward this project, your money will go twice as far since we will have matching contributions for every dollar you donate. Perhaps the company where you work would be interested in contributing matching funds.


Send all contributions to:
The Refuge Atascosa Pregnancy Care Center,
Po Box 509,
Pleasanton, TX, 78064
Or call 830-742-3447 or 830-569-5883 for more information.


Praise the Lord! What an amazing God we have! He has provided in ways I never expected!
Thank you Lord for the new center location, for the furniture and office equipment, for money to have my car worked on, and for the great piece of property we are purchasing!



Prayer Points
  • Volunteers!!! That we will have lots of volunteers for the training.

  • That we will recieve donationns that are needed before the openig.

  • That we will be able to get everything organized quickly for opening.

  • My 1994 Jeep Cherokee is having a few problems. Please pray for it’s healing as it is in the shop. God continues to provide. I was given money for it’s repair!!
