The fun and fellowship with these groups is so rich!
Our summers are usually some of our busiest times of the year, and this summer looks to be a busy one!
We plan to welcome eight groups over the summer for work groups. These groups of individuals devote themselves for several days to join in our mission to care for our children and ranch. Shiloh would not be the same without these groups and all that they do to serve our ministry. The fun and fellowship with these groups is so rich!
We have also started several summer sports camps, weights and scrimmages. Zyarie is training for football and basketball for the fall and Naomi is training for softball and basketball. We absolutely love to have the ability and availability to support, encourage and cheer on our kids!
Summer has also brought a new boy into our home. Leandro is 15, originally from Brazil, but has spent most of his life in Iowa. He enjoys watching and playing most sports and loves reading. We are excited to see all that God has in store for Leandro at Shiloh.
And what is summer without church camp? Between our 10 kids, we are covering four weeks of the church camp schedule. All our kids are nervous/excited for camp, and I can’t wait to report back to you with the results of your investment in their camp stays!
Later this summer, we have some big plans to move to our newly built home-C6. This home is well-covered with prayer, love and dedication. It has been a joy to live next to the Moores and Penfields these past two years and we’re looking forward to positively impacting our new neighbors.
I don’t want to miss the opportunity to praise our kids’ efforts this past school year. Between our public school, local private school and our on-site school, we are very blessed with several supportive school options for our kids to make sure each of them is equipped to succeed. We saw much academic growth across the board for each of our kids and we are so proud of their hard work! Kierslynn and Clara both made honor roll for the entire school year, Kegon and Zyarie also made honor roll, as well as receiving character awards. Zeke was recognized for his growth in character over the school year and Edith exceeded several academic goals. School isn’t always their favorite, but they are learning to work hard and honoring God with their efforts.
I want to thank you for your own powerful example of honor for our kids. Your support for our ministry through prayer, donations and time is kingdom work at its finest and we thank you. God’s hand is evident through your faithfulness. May He continue to bless and guide you.
In Him, Jeremy, Ashley & Cohn Crew
