A BIG THANK YOU!!!

"It was a beautiful thing that you came alongside me in my troubles."

Philippians 4:14, MSG

To all who organized, worked tirelessly, donated auction and food items, cooked, served; to those who came and supported the Mariano benefit

event last Saturday, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Our church

family, College Hills Baptist Church, and the San Angelo community at large, have showered our family with love, with gracious support, and with

generous financial gifts. Your loving and gracious support have made the

difficult journey of Kim's illness and passing much more bearable.

"The gifts you sent... were more than enough, like a

sweet-smelling sacrifice roasting on the altar, filling the air with fragrance, pleasing God no end. You can be sure that

God will take care of everything you need, his generosity

exceeding even yours in the glory that pours from Jesus. Our God and Father abounds in glory that just pours out into

eternity. Yes!"

Philippians 4:18-20, MSG

Yes! Our God and Father abounds in glory! Your love and generosity an

expression of His love and generosity. THANK YOU!!!

Every Parent wants to raise great kids, yet often we fall short of our dreams. Sometimes we’re just too busy and distracted. Some of us had less than ideal role models. Some of us are working at it, but we just don’t have a good game plan. Are you willing to invest one day in order to empower your kids... forever? With God’s help and a plan, you can raise truly great kids. This conference is a grace-based, character-driven model to nurture con-fident and cooperative kids-and have a great time in the process.

Parenting is the biggest job you will ever do. Give it your best.

This fun, fast-paced conference delves into:

What it takes to raise kids in the midst of busy lives.

Practical ways to take the fear out and put the fun back into parenting

Preparing your child’s heart to re-ceive God’s plan

Turning heartache to hope with your rebellious child

How to bring out the best in your strong-willed child

Creating an environment of love and respect

Giving your child tools to practically deal with their culture

How to lead your child to be a great adult

When it comes to parenting, the days are long... but the years are short.
