A Message from Amy...

Hey there! My name is Amy Armstrong and I am the new Teen/Young Parent Programs Coordinator.  I volunteered as a mentor in our Monday night program for 2 years and fell in love with the organization! Shortly after beginning as a mentor, I joined the fundraising committee. In the past, I have worked in the food industry in government and food safety regulations. I have an Animal Science degree from University of Missouri and an MBA from Excelsior College. 

I have been married to my husband Billy for 8 years and we have 2 boys. Caleb is in Kindergarten at Kaufman Christian School where I am blessed to serve as the board secretary for our Parent Teacher Fellowship organization. Our youngest, Adam, is in pre-school at Sonshine School. Both boys love being outside, as well as, traveling to other states and countries. 

Our family has lived in Crandall for over 3 years. We are members at Central Baptist Church where I lead our Wednesday evening Mission Friends program for pre-school and Kindergarten. When we are not busy volunteering in our amazing school ministry, we enjoy attending our adult Sunday school class and meeting for small group activities with our class. I love seeing our WINGS women's ministry program work so closely with our Monday night programs and look forward to seeing more Kingdom people involved in helping lead our teen and young parents! 

My name is Brandi Harris and I came on as staff in May 2017. I have been involved with Still Waters since 2013. I volunteered from 2014-2017 and have served as healing class facilitator, CPS liaison, and client advocate. I received my Bachelors of Science in Communication from the University of Texas at Tyler in 2006. 

My husband and I have been married for 14 years and have 2 boys. They are 11 and 7. We love spending time as a family and love exploring places we have never been. We enjoy hiking anywhere we go and are especially fond of the Rocky Mountain National Park. We have lived in the country in Kaufman County for over 10 years and we love being outdoors at home as well!

We have been involved in church ministry for many years. My husband served as a deacon in our previous church and I was the Co-Women's Ministry Leader. I have served on the board for a local ministry that outreached to under privileged children, on the campus advisory team for one of our local schools, and now I currently serve as the Vice Chair for our school's Parent Teacher Fellowship Organization. 

 

 

 

There have been some wonderful updates to the center over the last year and we want to share those with you.

Country Bible Church and Kaufman's Church of Christ chose Still Waters as on e of their service projects in the spring.  As a result, we have beautiful signs! One was placed in the front of the building, one was placed in the back of the building to direct clients to the entrance of Still Waters and one was placed a bove every office door! 

The signs are absolutely beautiful!!  We are beyond grateful for Country Bible Church and Kaufman's Church of Christ's service and contribution to Still Waters.  

We also want to share a picture of the updated i am ENOUGH booth. We have been able to add a few touches that allow Still Waters to stand out in exhibit halls at conferences.

A special shout out of appreciation goes to our sweet friend, D'Uan Berendzen.  She made our table ruffle and keepsake bags for the i am ENOUGH curriculum kits.  They are amazing!!!

D'Uan is extremely talented and we are so thankful she shared her God-given talent with us.

 

 

Here are some client updates that we would love to share with you:

Zanna's dream was to become a nurse. She believed she could... and she did! We are so very proud of her. 

We are so proud of Amber(Chosen) and Jeff(Ignite) for committing to each other and the Lord in marriage. Jeff was also baptized this past year.  What a mighty work the Lord is doing in their life! 

Jeff's Baptism!
