These are very exciting days in which we find ourselves! We are faith-based partners helping to meet the needs of New Hampshire's citizens. We are actively engaged in a number of projects making a difference in the lives of NH's citizens.
We are celebrating our 10th anniversary of our first project - Grace Children's Home. This pioneering adventure into NH's foster care system continues to be fruitful. Property has been purchased, rennovations complete and many children have benefitted from our efforts. We have seen a significant in crease in the Faith Community's involvement in foster care and it is continuing to increase. Recent statistics show that close to 70% of NH's foster parents are members of various faith communities. Pastors are embracing foster care as a home mission and getting involved. How great is that!
Currently, we are working on a number of other projects as our capacity is growing. We are building UShareNH which is a web-based tool designed to help social service workers find resources for their clients in local communities. Our premise is that neighbors will help neighbors if they know there is a need and who to contact. Neighbors are also more likely to get involved if the need is local. UShare, then, provides an opportunity to expand resource capacity at the local level. We are in the development stage working closely with the National Guard and NH Health and Human Services. Everyone can join. Just go to our website - UShareNH.org - and click the "Register Now" button. It will only take a few minutes.
Undergirding our efforts is the Lifeline Church which has doubled in size since our beginning in December '07. We are excited about what is happening in our community and the lives that have been forever changed. Our meetings have been life-giving and our times of fellowship around a meal afterwards have been so much fun! It really has the feel of a family and a community on a mission. Such a different feel than going to a meeting where nobody knows your name!
We're glad you stopped by so take a look around, download items of interest, and get in touch, we'd love to meet you!
Sincerely,
Keith Marsh
