Eli’s Alert Basic Training

Eli loved the adventure that Alert Basic Training offered.  It challenged him in new ways.  He realized the benefit of hard work, team work and overcoming hard things.  I love that the men of Alert loved on him in his struggles, challenged him to do better and cheered him on when he needed it.

Darrell flew with Eli and brought him to school.  It is always hard saying goodbye but knew this was his time.

Sara Graduates from Excel

Sara, we were so proud of you and all of the work you put into this program.  You were so excited about some of the activities and concerned about some of the others (public speaking) buut you overcame your fears and just look at you now! 

                                                    I loved hearing about your experiences at Excel!

                    The dinner was amazing.  The Excel young women helped set the tables and prepare the                             food.  Isn't it beautiful?

                                Everyone enjoyed reconnecting with folks and the yummy food!

                                                        The girls singing was beautiful!

This was a sweet time of fellowship, seeing how much Sara grew in different areas and spending time together as a family!
