A stitch in time . . .

Wendy Garland, a local occupational therapist and a good friend, stopped by Bridgewater for a tour and to inquire about training in hippotherapy (therapy on horseback). Wendy learned that when you ask the question, "Do you need help with anything?" the answer is always a resounding "YES!"

She left with a homework project--to repair the zipper on one of our sleeper loveseats. We are trying to create plenty of cozy sleeping accomodations to host our overnight guests during conferences and retreats! How great is it to have generous friends with valuable skills!?!?

Thanks, Wendy!

Pool Planning Party!

Bob Smith of Cabarrus Pools drove down to Bridgewater on Saturday to discuss the options for the pool and spa. Bob is helping us create a beautiful, therapeutic setting for our kids and their families.

Meanwhile, Dean Campbell of Campbell Grading started moving his heavy equipment to the site to complete all the prep work in time for pool delivery--in two to three weeks!

Sold!

Mary Hyatt of Rinehart Realty completed a successful closing on Diane's old house this week. Now we have the funds to proceed with our swimming pool! Mary is also the realtor who worked for over two years to help us find our current property at Bridgewater. Mary was willing to slog through mud and weeds and crawl under barbed wire fences in the rain to help us find the perfect place for our children. We can't thank you enough, Mary!
