4. Dorm Parents to Training
Coach
From 2008-2011 we were boys Dorm Parents at Faith
Academy.
During our furlough, 2011-2012, Faith Academy asked Larry
to start an Athletic Training Program instead of us being
Dorm Parents.
While on furlough, Larry planned the program, observed the
Athletic Trainer at Wheaton College, and collected and
shipped donated supplies for the program.

•Pre-K-12th grade, 500 students

8. Testimony
I am sure there are some people who wonder "what does Larry do all day?" I would just
like to say that I have been on the receiving end of "what Larry does" three days a week
since early September. I, a teacher at Faith Academy, was unfortunate enough to break
both bones in my lower left leg and had to have a plate and screws. Since then I have been
under Larry's care for Physio. This has been such a blessing! If Larry were not at the
school it would mean i would have to travel into the city to receive this treatment,
probably close to an hour journey each way, then probably that in waiting time in a
general clinic. This would mean I would be unable to do my ministry here at Faith
Academy as a teacher. I am only one of a number of Larry's "regular clients". Besides
seeing us, Larry gets often inundated with students needing tapping for games, and
massage after games and PE. I know some days he gets as many as twenty cases in a day.
I am truly grateful for the Lord leading Larry and Kim here and the ministry they are
blessing us with.
Leanne Lovatt (Middle School Home Ec teacher from New Zealand)

9. Prayer Requests
Please pray as we start the process of visas for the 5 of us and
Andrew's Passport.
Pray that we will find a local Church to minister to.
Pray for wisdom in housing, whether to stay in our current house
or look for a new house.
Pray as we adjust to having a new baby.
Pray that God will provide new teachers and staff for next year at
Faith Academy.
