Summer of Hope 2019 Would you consider offering a child a once in a lifetime opportunity this summer? The Summer of Hope program allows families the opportunity to host a child from an orphanage in the Philippines or Columbia for one month this summer in hopes of helping that child connect with an adoptive family. The children are usually between the ages of 8-14 years old. Gillette, Wyoming will be hosting the program this summer and has invited Sheridan families to participate. If you are interested in more information about becoming a host family or about the program please contact: Amber Van Dyke (307)461-0132 amber@hopeadoptionswy.com

Rocky and Sylvia Engel Church Planting in Venezuela with WorldVenture Praise God for the Christmas in Venezuela project! Children s gifts were distributed to the hospital, a street ministry and a sister church outside the city.
