He went by a lady who attended our churches house... left a note on her front door in the middle of the night letting her know the kids were alone... she headed that way to church that morning to get them and found all 5 of them walking down beltline rd in Dallas on their way to a little grocery store where the girl would give her free milk for the younger kids... this sister pulled to her.. not telling her till years later it was at the prompting of her father... and asked to take them to church... by the end of that service they were all in foster homes within the church... the youngest being with the pastor himself..
These kids are all grown now and have all raised some wonderful families except the youngest he still lives with Ma and the Dad as he calls them but God brought those kids out and he did some wonderful things in their lives... there was mental torment more than you could ever imagine but ... God heals all things in his time! I will and my sister will pray for this young boy that he will feel that same healing they felt that day when someone in a church somewhere cared!!!

Amen, AG! His mother is a drug addict. Has been for years! It's a wonder she is still alive. I know the boy can't understand that the woman can't even think to care about anything but her addiction, but maybe someday when he's older he will get it.
Thanks for you prayers. He was sooooo astonished at the power of God. He's such an awkward child. Our whole youth group prayed through last night. Every single one. Even the children. God is good!
