When we opened the doors of The Mercy House 18 months ago, we had a very specific goal of providing good, stable jobs for local members of the community where Rehema House is located. And when Annette came to us, we knew she was just the person for the position of Housemother.

Over the past year and a half, 16 children under the age of 17 have entered The Mercy House, and Annette has served and loved each one of them well. However, the time has come for Annette to serve her community in a different way in order to be reunited her own precious children.

Annette has been working diligently to save money with the hopes of opening her own restaurant, and we are so happy to let you know that her dream is becoming a reality. She has been such a great blessing to The Mercy House, and we hate to see her go. We are thankful, however, for the time we've shared with her and for the opportunity she has been given. Please begin to pray for Annette as she moves into the next chapter of her story: pray for her family, for her new business, and for her faith.

Annette's shoes are so hard to fill that we've hired two new housemothers to help run Rehema House. We'll be sharing more about these new members of The Mercy House family next week, but we'd appreciate if you would already begin to pray for a smooth transition.

Dear Annette, thank you so much for all of the time and love you invested in The Mercy House. You have been a great blessing to each person who has entered this home. We wish you all the best in your new endeavors, and we look forward to seeing what God will do next in your life. Thank you for loving mercy!
