Talequah, Oklahoma at the United Methodist Children's Home. The home provides care for boys, ages 6-12 and girls ages 6 to high school graduation who are experiencing problems which prevent them from living at home or in foster care, including physical or sexual abuse, drug and alcohol abuse, gang involvement, difficulties with the law, depression, and/or out-of-control behavior.
Our stayed in housing on the grounds. Youth did lots of clean up work on the grounds and also some work at the nearby Methodist Church Camp Egan. The kids at the Home hosted a meal for our workers and also a rousing evening of Dodge Ball. Some of those kids also worked along side of our Youth on the various projects.
Our youth were touched by the plight of the children at the Home and honored to help in this very worthy ministry. Some of our kids worked hard and some hardly worked.
Every evening ended with a worship service and several
impromptu late night Praise gatherings at the Gazebo.
