DEAR NEWNAN FUMC: “Feed my sheep”: The task set for St. Peter and all shepherds as made clear by Jesus (John 21:15-17). Through your initial and continued support of Angel’s House, we are able to keep our doors open, offering a safe haven to children who need a place to call home. We continue to serve children in need in the Newnan-Coweta community, as well as surrounding areas. To date, we have cared for 230 children. The on-going community support, such as yours, remains a source of strength and inspiration. In faith, Kaye Todd (Angel’s House)
