Teen Challenge blessing

Thank you so much for the wonderful coverage of the recent Teen Challenge banquet. Although I live an hour away, I see amazing support from the city of Cape Girardeau, your businesses, churches and residents.

It is such a refreshing thing to see people trying to help lift up those who have fallen, enabling them a "second chance" to walk a godly way. My heart was moved as I watched 150 plus men walk into the Show Me Center and their new executive director James Bolin turn and present them as his family. I knew then that something huge was about to happen on the "mountain" of the Teen Challenge campus in Cape Girardeau. And because of your city's support, God's word says that "as you've done to the least of these, you've done it to Me." (Matthew: 25:40)

Cape Girardeau and Southeast Missourian, get ready to be blessed!

AMY BLOUGH, Bernie, Mo.
