WELCOME LEATHA to FOREST PARK!


We are so excited that Leatha Sturgeon is our new director at Forest Park Ministry Center as of July 16th. She comes to Forest Park from our Valley Park Center where she had been a volunteer for many years. She had initially come to Valley Park to get some temporary assistance with a utility bill and wanted to "pay back" what she had borrowed so she came back the next week and offered to volunteer. She has been there ever since(over 10 years ago). She has been mentored by director, Myrtle Mainor and has a great testimony to share with the clients who come in to the center. the Lord had worked in her life and grown her in many ways. She is married with 2 grown children and several grandchildren who all live in Atlanta. She is working on an Associates Degree in Early Childhood Education at Troy-Montgomery.

Be sure and have Leatha come and share with your church how the Lord can take a crisis in life and bring good out of it!

Ten Ways You Can Serve Greater Montgomery

2. Do a neighborhood survey and find out what your community wants and needs.

3. Tithe 1/10 of your garden and give to a family in need.

4. Read to a child at one of the public schools in your area. The administration would love to have you serve.


5. Start an Fellowship of Christian Athletes club at a local jr high or high school.

6. Take gift bags to new neighbors around your home or church with information about the church/community.

7. Adopt a school and be a prayer partner with them.


8. Call Alabama Post/Pre Adoption Connections(APAC-334-409-9477) in Montgomery and find out how you can support adoptive families.

9. Offer to host an ESL or Conversational English class in your church. Someone can come and train your church to teach ESL too.

10. Gather in good condition clothing and take to the centers. Ask Forest Park about their "Good Samaritan Clothing Ministry".
