Finally We Tutor!

So this past week we FINALLY started our afterschool homework help/tutoring program on Cypress St. After many many months of planning and preparation, we were able to get this dream of ours up and running. The first Monday, we had 10 students come for help! We had 3 tutors the first day. By the end of the week we had two tables full of students ready to learn. We are still lacking on tutors, only about three a day. We are so grateful for the students who want help, but we cannot do it alone. Three tutors per 12 kids is just not enough! We are looking forward to more participation and are open as to what this program holds or us. It is a dream of Letty and mine to have a tutoring program and instill self worth and value through education in these kids. It is easy to think of school and homework as a tedious tasks, but our education is so valuable. As a college student I understand how trying school and homework can be. I wish I had a program that came to my house in junior high and high school that would help me out! It is also nice to get homework done with friends and support all around. We truly value our education and have seen how doors open when you do complete school. Please pray for and with us as we go blindly down this road the Lord has taken us down. To be honest, we really don't know what we're doing but we're doing it as God calls us. We can use all the help we can get, so if you have any desire or interest in helping students with their homework please holler at us!
