Pray for the Residents of Picher, Oklahoma
August 29th, 2008 by Peggy in Customers, PrayerWe recently received a request for prayer from a customer in the Picher, Oklahoma area. She related how in the 1980’s Picher and several other small, surrounding towns became part of a Superfund site called Tarr Creek. A Superfund site is a toxic waste site identified by the Environmental Protection Agency for cleanup.
Imagine your hometown uninhabitable and slowly disappearing from the landscape. Susie told us that at a reunion held recently, the women of Picher met and reminisced. Then they all cried.
Please pray for the people of Picher, Oklahoma, that God will move in a mighty way to hasten the sale of the remaining homes and businesses so that the residents can begin new lives free from the fear of pollution and cave-ins.

Please pray for the Odom Family
August 14th, 2008 by Peggy in PrayerFor a number of years, NewLife has been associated with Fishers of Men National Tournament Trail as both web designer and product supplier. We have been especially pleased to help this Christian group because Richard Humble, President of NewLife Industries, is himself an avid fisherman.
Friday night, August 8th, Sam Odom, 17, son of Al Odom, Founder and National Director of Fishers of Men, was killed in an automobile accident while returning from a late night fishing trip with some friends. We are deeply saddened by this news. Unless someone has lost a child, it is hard to imagine the sorrow this family is feeling. We ask that you pray for Al; his wife, Sharon; and their other children.
The Peanut Butter Gang
August 8th, 2008 by Peggy in Ministry | Tags: Causes, PhotosNewLife is blessed to share in the ministry of The Peanut Butter Gang and Hospitality Too Soup Kitchen in Brentwood, New York. This ecumenical ministry not only provides a soup kitchen and clothing ministry, but the many “gang” members (local churches, school children, and others) provide peanut butter sandwiches and wash up kits for the homeless in many of New York’s missions. We’re not talking about a few peanut butter sandwiches, but thousands of sandwiches every month.
The Peanut Butter Gang also supplies a number of care packages to various missions around the world each month. NewLife is pleased to have been able to contribute to these packages over the years. Recently we received a thank you note from a mission for adults and children with AIDS in Cambodia. Along with the note were some pictures of beautiful children who are being helped by this mission. We wanted to share these pictures with you and to thank the Peanut Butter Gang for providing this opportunity.
“Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.” Mark 9:37
If you would like more information about the Peanut Butter Gang, they can be reached at P.O. Box 514, Brentwood, NY 11717.
