2 Things! 1. It's time for our annual fundraiser for Christmas for the juveniles housed in the Marion County Adult Detention Center. These kids are being tried in adult court due to the severity of their charges. For the last 26 years we have wanted to show them in a tangible way that God loves them and that they are not forgotten. We buy hygiene, stationary, thermals and socks...plus a few goodies! Please help us extend God's love and grace to this kids with your generous donation!
2. Aside from the previous need, Shepherd's Heart Ministries is in financial trouble. New monthly partners are needed, and until they are established, we need to bump up the bank acct to cover expenses, including my salary. I have been paying most ministry expenses out of pocket for a couple of years and now without more help, my salary is in danger as well. If you would like more information on this ministry please message me at Lynn Cole Springer here on fb. I will be happy to share with you what is happening!

Every once in a while, a ewe will give birth to a lamb and reject it. If the lamb is returned to the ewe, the mother may even kick the poor animal away. Once a ewe rejects one of her lambs, she will never change her mind.
These little lambs will hang their heads so low that it looks like something is wrong with its neck. Their spirit is broken. These lambs are called “bummer lambs.”
Unless the shepherd intervenes, that lamb will die, rejected and alone. So, do you know what the shepherd does? He takes that rejected little one into his home, hand-feeds it and keep it warm by the fire. He will wrap it up with blankets and hold it to his chest so the bummer can hear his heartbeat.
Once the lamb is strong enough, the shepherd will place it back in the field with the rest of the flock. But that sheep never forgets how the shepherd cared for him when his mother rejected him.
When the shepherd calls for the flock, guess who runs to him first? That is right, the bummer sheep. He knows his voice intimately. It is not that the bummer lamb is loved more, it just knows intimately the one who loves it.
So many of us are bummer lambs, rejected and broken. But He is the good Shepherd. He cares for our every need and holds us close to His heart so we can hear His heart beat. We may be broken but we are deeply loved by the Shepherd.
From one bummer sheep to another… I love you! ♥️
