THC newslettersummer 10 - Thornwell Home for Children
A joyful Christian community offering hope and wholeness to children and families Summer 2010 life THORNWELL CONGRATULATIONS Thornwell Students page 3 WADING IN THE WATERS A Confirmation Journey page 4 SARA JO COTTAGE Welcome to our Zoo page 8 FAMILY TEACHER Practitioners of the Year page 14 From the President Dear Thornwell Friends, As you read about the many wonderful things that are happening on our campus in this issue of Thornwell Life, I hope the stories fill you with a renewed sense of the importance of the work accomplished by this historic ministry. As a direct result of your support, our children are learning what it feels like to be cared for, supported and loved. They are discovering how to be successful students, how to reach out to others in need, and how faith can change their lives in ways they could have never imagined. But while the children in Thornwell’s care are thriving, this ministry is now feeling the stressful impact of the recession in our fund-raising program. Revenue is down 25% compared to this same time period last year, but we are certain that through careful budgeting, the support of Thornwell’s faithful friends and the grace of God, our ministry together will continue to offer hope and wholeness to hurting children for years to come. I hope you will prayerfully consider a gift to Thornwell. If you have already given, I ask you to consider another gift during this particularly challenging year. Thank you for making this ministry possible, and for all you do for our children. Please keep us in your prayers. Blessings, Robert W. (Skip) Stansell, Jr. President 2 e h t Onnor Roll Ho Congratulations to all our students who made honor roll for the third nine weeks. Making the all A Honor Roll were Jessica H., Katlyn K., Tammie K., and Joseph R. The students on the AB Honor Roll were Haley C., Alexis D., Chris F., Stephanie F., Jessica H., Savannah J., Corey L., Donald M., Kamel M., Khalima M., Keisha R., Chantel R., Alexis S., Latrevet T., and Devon W. Chris F. and Latrevet T. were honored at the Clinton High School Academic Awards ceremony for earning positions in the top ten percent of their classes. Chris also received a full scholarship to attend the Hugh O’Brian Leadership conference at Erskine College this summer. In April, the traditional Accelerated Reader Pizza and Ice Cream Party was held in the Turner Dining Hall to celebrate the reading achievements of Thornwell students. During the third nine weeks of the school year, we had a record number of students (41) meet their Accelerated Reader reading goals! Our top eight points earners were: Caroline - 209 pts., Chris - 136 pts., Sadie - 92 pts., Morgan - 69 pts., Joseph R. - 50 pts., Randy - 49 pts., Kirsten - 37 pts., and Jamie - 36 pts. Each nine-weeks, students are encouraged to check out books from The Learning Center and commit from 20 to 30 minutes a day to reading. As an incentive, point goals are set according to the age/reading level of each child and points are awarded based on the number of books read. Students must take and pass a comprehension test after reading each book to earn points. Our summer program in reading and math will take place from June 14 until August 5. All students in grades 10 and below will receive instruction in math for 50 minutes per day using the Accelerated Math Program, and they will be able to check out books to read over the summer. Thornwell Students (L to R) Caroline, Chris, Jamie, Randy, Sadie and Joseph 3 Faith Development and Christian Nurture Wading in Confirmation Journey For six weeks this spring (April 18-May 23, 2010) the church staff offered a confirmation class to members of our campus family, 12 years and older. We had a wonderful time together as we met each Sunday morning during the Sunday school hour to learn the essentials of the Christian faith and to give class members opportunities to express their faith. Confirmation lessons included an introduction to the Bible and Bible skills, worship and how it reflects our theology, and writing faith statements. In addition, Thornwell’s President, Skip Stansell, and his wife, Peggy took the time to share their faith stories with the children. Eleven Thornwell youth participated in the confirmation journey. At the end of the six weeks, students who completed the required classes and received approval by the Session were given the opportunity to be confirmed in church during worship on Pentecost Sunday at Hartness-Thornwell Memorial Presbyterian Church. On a beautiful Pentecost Sunday in May three Thornwell boys made their public professions of faith and their Thornwell family promised to support them. Following six weeks of confirmation classes, Marcell Roberts, Jaquell Davis, and Raysean McDuffie were examined by the Session of Hartness-Thornwell Presbyterian Church and professed their desire to walk in the faith of the Lord Jesus Christ. Jaquell and Raysean were baptized. Marcell had been baptized earlier in his life. “This is the most important day of my life,” said Raysean. “I will never forget this moment.” The boys were among eleven Thornwell children who took part in Confirmation classes offered by Finley Sutton, Hartness-Thornwell’s Christian Educator. The other children will join the church at a later date. Tiny hands test the waters of baptism. On Saturday, April 24, everyone in the class traveled to the Spartanburg Soup Kitchen to complete a service project. During this special time of service, our children had the opportunity to experience helping others by preparing and serving a meal to the homeless. “Confirmation is a process of learning and experiencing what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ.” Thornwell Christian Educator Finley Sutton. 4 e the Waters “Wha a privilege to be a part of their Christian “What journeys,” said Finley. “While their questions can keep me on my toes, their child-like faith is always an inspiration to me!” Thornwell staffer and preacher for the day, Larry Owens, officiated at the baptisms and confirmations. “When a child looks at you and tells you he’s ready to follow Jesus, you believe him!” said Larry. “Having talked with them, it’s clear to me that the Holy Spirit is at work in their lives.” With more than 100 children and Family Teachers in worship, church services are always energetic and full of spontaneity. “These kids keep us on the edge of our spiritual seats!” said Finley. “One can never tell how the Spirit will move among us but it’s always refreshing.” Thornwell elementary school children bake bread for Communion Sunday. Baking Bread for Communion During the first week of April, the younger children gathered in the kitchen on the first floor of the Nelson Building to sift flour, roll-out dough, bake fresh bread and learn all about Communion and why it is an important part of Christian life. “It is a time to remember all that Christ has done for each of us,” says Finley. “It also shows our participation in the body of Christ when we come together in communion and worship. The children and I are baking enough bread to share with everyone in our congregation on Communion Sunday.” L to R: Rev. Larry Owens with Thornwell youth Jaquell, Raysean and Marcell. 5 Welcome Thornwell Board of Visitors We had two glorious spring days for our annual Board of Visitors meeting on campus April 29-30. This year we welcomed sixty members of the Board, a group of women and men from across Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina who serve as Thornwell advocates in their local churches and communities. Friendships were renewed, new relationships were established, and a great spirit of energy and excitement about Thornwell’s ministry found expression. During the two days, the Board of Visitors heard several presentations and experienced a kind of immersion in Thornwell. Lindy Scott and Susan Mattison described the application and admissions process, sharing information on the backgrounds from which children come to Thornwell and telling how admissions decisions are made. Board members visited the Learning Center and Norman Dover to see how academic support is provided to the children. Then they went to the Agriculture Education Center (the farm) to learn from Melanie Birchmore about the classes and animals and 4-H projects there. Board of Visitors Honor Distinguished Benefactor During their visit, the Board of Visitors bestowed honors for outstanding service to the Bailey Foundation of Clinton and to staff members, Jim and Becky Brown. Chairman John Anderson of Lexington, SC recognized the Bailey Foundation as Thornwell’s Distinguished Benefactor of 2010. He traced the life and example of Mercer Silas Bailey and his great legacy of community support. Anderson said that through the Bailey Foundation, “the shadow of Mercer Silas Bailey continues to be cast across this area in a remarkable way, and especially across the Thornwell campus and into the lives of the hundreds of children who have called this campus home.” The Foundation’s first gift to Thornwell was made in 1953, and for 49 consecutive years the Bailey Foundation has continued to support the ministry. George Cornelson accepted the award on behalf of the Bailey Foundation trustees. 6 Then on to the cottages, where our Visitors spent time with the children and Family Teachers and heard about what life in the cottage families is like. From there, the entire campus gathered in the Turner Dining Hall for a delicious supper. Following the meal, we celebrated the recognition of the Bailey Foundation of Clinton, SC, as 2010 Distinguished Benefactor. In attendance on behalf of the Bailey Foundation were Bob Link of Carolina First Bank, and Ann and George Cornelson of the Bailey Foundation. Thornwell Family Teachers, Jim and Becky Brown were the recipients of the 2010 Distinguished Service Award. After dinner, the church staff talked with the Board about the life of the campus church and the work of Christian nurture here. They were aided in their presentation by Thornwell youths Jessica Haddad, Sheryl Richardson, and Randy Walthall. The Board next spent some time in dialogue with Dr. William Weary, a strategic planning consultant, who is assisting Thornwell’s Trustees in developing a vision and plan for the future. That discussion was followed by a presentation from members of the Development staff who described the important work of fundraising and public relations, especially on communication of the story and the opportunities for support of Thornwell’s ministry. The annual gathering of our Board of Visitors on the campus is a time of genuine fun and excitement for all of us. We are deeply grateful for all that these wonderful friends and advocates do to bear witness to Thornwell’s ministry to God’s children. On Friday morning, the Board enjoyed a conversation with Adam and Leah Hucks, Greg and Suzanne Humphreys, and Danny and Ashley Smith. These Family Teachers told how they came to Thornwell and talked about their sense of God’s call to this ministry with children. In response to questions, they described how they work with the children and what they seek to teach them as they live together in the family setting. and Distinguished Service Recipients for 2010. Family Teachers, Jim and Becky Brown, were honored with the Board of Visitors’ 2010 Distinguished Service Award. The Browns have served at Thornwell for 13 years in Stewart Cottage, Thornwell’s home dedicated to children ages 2 to 6 years old. Their outstanding work with pre-school aged children in residential care led to the collaboration of a published curriculum for teaching social skills to young children. In 2008, the Browns were awarded the Lonnie and Elaine Phillips Award by the Teaching Family Association and were recognized as the association’s Practitioners of the Year. Lovingly called “Mommy and Daddy Brown” by more than 100 children over their 13 year careers, Chairman Anderson recognized the Browns for their “faithful and exemplary service to Thornwell and to the Teaching Family Association.” 7 Sara Jo Cottage: Welcome to the Sara Jo Cottage Zoo by Thornwell college student, Jolie Odom One house, two Family Teachers and seven college or young adults, hormones, successes and career-bound yo struggles, personalities, complicated relationships… ALL UNDER ONE ROOF! Yeah, the circus has nothing on us. Sara Jo, you probably figured out by now, is a coed, college-student-filled, cottage at Thornwell. The program is called the Preparation for Independent Living program. After that horrible stage I call high school (thank gosh that’s over) students who want and are determined to go to college, move to Sara Jo. Sometimes it feels like a zoo with so many people in one house, but that’s not always a bad thing! We may not all be together all the time, but in the end, we are each other’s body guards, advisors and shoulders to lean on - always there when someone needs a laugh. What I’m saying is, in this cottage, there is always going to be someone who has your back. During the summer, just like the milk container in the fridge that is always empty, (I plead guilty) our cottage is pretty empty. Four of the seven of us are off-campus working summer jobs. So while there’s a quiet moment, it would be my pleasure to take you all on a tour of the Sara Jo Zoo and introduce you to all the monkeys who live here. For your safety, please keep your hands inside the vehicle at all times, and no poking the monkeys! Amanda 8 The first of the bunch is Amanda Shelnutt. Amanda is working at Camp Hollymont in North Carolina for the summer. Random fact: no one calls Amanda by her name. I call her Shell, or Shelly (after she convinced me to name my hamster after her) but everyone calls her Shelnutt. She attends Winthrop University (yes, with me) and is majoring in psychology with a double minor in studio art and art history. Preparing Young Adults for Success! Shelly will be coming back to the cottage just in time to go back to school in August. She will graduate in May 2011. Celeste Houston I know Celeste lives with us, but I never see her. Right now she is away working at camp Merriwood. She attends North Greenville University and will be begin her junior year in August. She is majoring in youth leadership. Celeste wants to work with at-risk youth after graduation. At the beginning of the summer she went on a wilderness camping trip called Journey in the mountains of Tennessee. She’s very adventurous! Chance Reynolds Chance is our cottage jokester and the only guy living in Sara Jo besides our Family Teacher, Mr. Conner. For those rainy, bad-mood days, his personality really comes in handy. Chance is waiting on acceptance to Lander University this fall. He wants to major in Psychology. His career goal is to be a Family Teacher. He is working at Camp Fellowship this summer. Omekia Headen Omekia (we call her Mekia) just recently moved in. She graduated from Clinton High School in May, and works at Bi-Lo. Mekia will be attending Clemson University this fall as a freshman majoring in biology. She plans to one day be a neurosurgeon. “High school graduation was the best thing that happened to me this summer,” she says. As a new college student, Mekia is looking forward to meeting new people and taking classes. Latrevet Thomas Latrevet will be moving to Sara Jo this summer. She is still looking for work. Jobs are scarce everywhere, but especially in a small town like Clinton. She will be a freshman at the College of Charleston majoring in biology. Latrevet wants to be a pediatric surgeon. Celeste Chance Omekia Latrevet 9 Sara Jo Cottage (continued from page 9) Patience Patience Connelley Patience or “Petunia” as Shell calls her, works at Subway and will soon be leaving for Job Corps in Kentucky. She wants to have a career in computer technology. “My funniest memory this summer so far was getting my face painted at the Georgia Aquarium,” Patience says. “I am looking forward to learning new skills for the real world when I am in Job Corps.” Jolie Jolie Odom Me! Okay. This should be easy. As of a few days ago (hold the applause) I started a summer job, working at Mc Donald’s (you may applaud now). So when you see the golden arches, think of me and all those french-fries. Yum! I will be a sophomore this fall at Winthrop University. I am majoring in special education, and I am considering a career in animal therapy, and hope to work with mentally and developmentally challenged persons. The Conners The Conners We cannot forget our terrific zoo keepers - April and Caleb Conner. Ms. April and Mr. Caleb are, of course, our Family Teachers at Sara Jo Cottage. The Conners have been at Thornwell for six years. They have a big job keeping track of all seven of us, but they do a great job. They are wonderful Family Teachers! So, that’s the end of the tour. I hope you’ve had as much fun learning about the Sara Jo Cottage Zoo as I have had being your tour guide! What do we want you to know most about the monkeys of Sara Jo Cottage? That we are here to create a successful future for ourselves – that we are headed in the right direction - that we learn skills such as saving money and budgeting and goal setting - that we are painting our own futures... that we are Sara Jo Cottage. 10 Tea Anyone? A Tea Party at the Home of Peace ce Many thanks to our Thornwell Board of Visitors members, Lisa Brown and Thelma Considine, and their friends Frances and Caroline Beach, Debby Paduszynski, and Eleanor Neumeyer for hosting a lovely afternoon tea for the ladies of Thornwell. The event was held at the Home of Peace on Saturday, April 24, and was well attended! Along with several varieties of hot and cold teas including, Mango Pineapple Chili, Acai Blueberry and Rooibos (Redbush) tea, guests had their choice of an array of delicious, decadent, homemade desserts. During this fun time of fellowship, Thornwell Alumnae, Wilma Young, Mary Alice Mundy and Flo Dowdle graciously conducted tours of the Home of Peace. The ladies brought several photo albums and shared with the guests some of their experiences as they grew up on Thornwell’s campus. Thanks Wilma, Mary Alice and Flo, for your willingness to share your Thornwell stories with this generation of Thornwell girls! In addition to hosting this wonderful event, Lisa and Thelma also held a fundraiser to benefit Thornwell at Lisa’s home in Richmond Hill, Georgia. The ladies served a dinner featuring South African cuisine, hosted a wine tasting, and held a silent auction. Approximately 50 guests attended. The event raised over $3,300! “As Thornwell Board of Visitors members, we really want to do as much as we can to help support and encourage the children of Thornwell.” said Lisa. “We feel blessed to be able to help.” During the last week of April, Lisa and Thelma traveled back to Thornwell’s campus from Richmond Hill, Georgia to attend the annual Thornwell Board of Visitors meeting. We are so grateful for the care and support these ladies give to Thornwell’s children! Lisa and Thelma operate Hale Tea Company, an online purveyor of fine teas and tea accessories. Visit them at haletea.com 11 Celebrating the outstanding work of Family Teacher Appreciation Day On Tuesday, May 18, Thornwell held its sixth annual Family Teacher Appreciation Day to honor the work of Thornwell’s dedicated Family Teachers. The theme this year was a “Country Hoedown” and everyone dressed the part: straw hats, western shirts and handkerchiefs, cowboy boots (or no shoes at all), and overalls – Yee Haw! The celebration began with generous helpings of barbeque, cold slaw, baked beans, sweet potato casserole, iced tea, and lemonade, all provided by Mutts Barbeque of Greenville, SC. Strawberry shortcake made for a fine dessert while a drawing for all sorts of prizes took place – gift cards for Barnes and Noble, Starbucks, Outback and Best Buy were among the prizes awarded. Following lunch, guests were called to order with an ear-piercing “Yee-Haw” delivered by Thornwell’s talented Teaching Family Programs Director, Keri Chavis. All Family Teachers were recognized for their time of service at Thornwell. Each was given the official Family Teacher Appreciation Day T-Shirt designed by Family Teachers, Chris Broecker, Adam Hucks, and Danny Smith. In announcing the award for 2010 Teaching-Family Practitioner of the Year, Programs Director Keri Chavis, said, “I’m not really sure what to say about the extraordinary level of care this couple provides to the girls in their cottage, other than to say that the work of this couple is a shining example of what Teaching-Family should be.” Congratulations to Berkele Family Teachers, Adam and Leah Hucks, Thornwell’s 2010 TeachingFamily Practitioners of the Year! As the recipients of this award, they will have the opportunity to attend the National Teaching-Family Conference 12 Thornwell’s Family Teachers May 18, 2010 in Columbus, Ohio later in the year and be recognized for their accomplishments. Later, Lindy Scott, Thornwell’s VP of Children and Family Ministries was appointed the official “Sheriff ” of Thornwell. Understanding the enormous scope of her duties, Lindy called on Quick-draw Josh (Gruber), deputizing him as FT in charge of the grassy area in front of the Learning Center. Taking his appointment seriously, Deputy Josh decreed there will be no loitering allowed in this designated area. This includes squirrels, chipmunks and birds of any-kind. Eagle-Eye Leah (Hucks) was appointed FT deputy in charge of the parking lot in front of The Administration building. All cars Deputy EagleEye is unfamiliar with will be towed by tractor to the pasture. And finally, Pitch-fork Ashley (Smith) was appointed FT deputy in charge of the farm. Guests caught riding pigs without permission should consider themselves uninvited to the spring “Pig-Pickin.” In addition to the awards ceremony, a Pickle-eating Contest and a Hog-calling Contest took place. Family-Teacher Eric Smith was pronounced the indisputable winner of BOTH of these prestigious competitions. Winning the award for the day’s “best-dressed” was Family Teacher, Chris Broecker. The afternoon ending with a fast-paced (well, sorta) square dance. At the end of the day everyone felt satisfyingly full and much appreciated. Thanks Children and Family Ministries staff for a wonderful day! 13 What does it mean to be a Family Teacher? Who knew there was such a thing as a Family Teacher? We didn’t! When Adam and I first felt God calling us into this ministry we had no idea what we were getting into. Our experience with kids included all kinds of special moments from working with children at summer camp to leading college freshmen in Bible study. We had a lot of fun, but those things were not the same as teaching kids what family really looks like. In 2005, Adam and I were in the process of making some changes in our life. Better yet, God was in the process of making some changes in Adam and me. Adam was working in research and development with a bioengineering firm. I was working as an accountant at Clemson. We had bought our first home and had two children who were one and three years old. Then, everything changed. Through the course of six months we went from thinking we should financially support children’s homes to being called to work in one. Our jobs are not easy. Days can be very difficult and at times, exhausting. Sometimes we struggle with balance and making sure all ten of our girls get the attention they need. Sometimes we fall short. Still, we trust that God brought us here and that He is working here. Any struggles we may face as Family Teachers, He can handle. So what does it mean to be a Family Teacher? To us, it means more than fun vacations and tearfilled moments clapping loudly for all of our kids’ achievements. Those things are great but it means sometimes being the bad guy when a kid is saying or doing things that need guidance and redirection. Being a Family Teacher means taking time to pray with each child when the day has been long. It means thinking about each girl as you’re making a grocery list because each kid needs to know that someone loves them enough to make their favorite meal sometimes. It means having Justin Bieber on your personal iPod because inevitably one of your kids is going to ask to listen to him. In April of 2006, we made the move (and huge life change) to Thornwell. Sarah’s Family Teacher Practitioners of the Year, Cottage was the first home we worked Adam & Leah Hucks in, and we were quickly involved in the lives of seven amazing little girls. Being a Family Teacher means giving a hug to a child We were thrilled! Not only were we working with these when she knows she has messed up and because you terrific kids, but our two little terrific kids were right there remember her burden is heavy and she needs it lifted - even in the middle of it all. Our new life was more than we could if it’s just for a moment. It means caring enough to realize have ever imagined! that being a kid is hard, and grace is one of the greatest teaching tools we have. Fast forward and here we are, summer 2010. Our now eight “big” girls are in middle and high school. Our two “little” People always ask us how long we expect to do this. Well, girls just celebrated turning six and eight years old. We are we hope to do it for a very long time. We hope to see so blessed to work as a team with an incredibly godly couple our eight “big” girls finish high school and follow their who take ministry very seriously as they raise their two progress into the adult world. We hope to be used by God precious children right along with the others. to glorify Him through the lives of many more children in years to come. Right at the moment, we just want to enjoy We continue to be blessed by the support we receive from each of our ten girls and to continue to learn and teach Thornwell staff and our cottage sponsors. We feel like we them about the Lord, life and being a family. work with some of the kindest people on the planet. “It means caring enough to realize that being a kid is hard, and grace is one of the greatest teaching tools we have.” Thornwell Family Teacher, Leah Hucks 14 Thanks FPC Pensacola, Florida! purchase new whiteboards for The Learning Center. On Monday, it was off to work for everyone! The group divided into teams. Several volunteers went to work on the Wilson Cottage deck project, while others painted walls in The Learning Center, in preparation for the arrival of new whiteboards. In the afternoons, another team hosted activites at the church for Thornwell’s children. We were pleased to have a very enthusiastic group of volunteers on campus for an entire week this summer from First Presbyterian Church, Pensacola, FL. On Thursday afternoon, with the Wilson Cottage deck completed and the walls in The Learning Center painted, the group gathered at the MAC (Marshall Activity Center) for a farewell dinner with our Thornwell Family. Following dinner, Nancy Lindeman and Ann Felten thanked the group for their hard work and presented them with a copy of Dr. Jacob’s diary for their church library. After a late-afternoon arrival on Saturday, the group set-up “camp” down by the lake. On Sunday morning, everyone attended worship at HartnessThornwell Memorial Church where they received a warm welcome by the congregation. The week ended with singing, dancing and goodbye hugs. Many thanks, FPC Pensacola, for your commitment of time and resources to accomplishing these wonderful projects, and for spending a week of your summer with us! Following the service, Thornwell staff members, Nancy Lindeman and Bill Tiller, conducted a tour of the campus and shared with the group a little about Thornwell’s history and how Thornwell nurtures and cares for children today. At the end of the tour, these gracious volunteers presented a check to Thornwell for $7000. The money was to cover the cost of materials the group would use to build a new deck for Wilson Cottage, and to 15 With much appreciation to our Stewart Cottage Team Dear Friends of Stewart Cottage, What a difference a renovation makes! One can only imagine how different life will be after a home is renovated, and in my wildest dreams, I never imagined how wonderful it would be to move back into a newly-renovated Stewart Cottage. We have been back in Stewart Cottage for seven months, and we like it better every day. It is home – for children and Family Teachers alike. The children are so happy with it that they often don’t want to go anywhere and, when we do, they are always eager to “go home.” It is a cheerful place, and a place we are all happy to be. The children, ages 2 to 6, don’t really know how to say thank you but they make little comments that say it all. When the doorbell rings all the children go running to the door. Often they know the guest; sometimes they do not. But, whether they know you or not, they often say, “Do you want to see my new room?” They proceed to show their bed, their closet, the colorful walls, they talk about their “special” sheets and comforters; they even start getting out all their toys and telling the guest if they had this particular toy a long time, or if it is new like “our Stewart Cottage.” Our little ones are not allowed to go in the kitchen, especially when the oven is hot and there are pans on the stove. One day when Daddy Brown was taking the children to school, he and Jackson, age 3, had a conversation that went something like this: Jackson: “Daddy Brown, I see a newspaper.” Daddy Brown: “What does it say, Jackson?” Jackson: “I don’t know. I can’t read.” Daddy Brown: “Well, one day when you get bigger you will be able to read.” Jackson: “When I get bigger, I will be able to go in 16 our new kitchen. I like our kitchen. It’s got lots of drawers and doors.” We are so appreciative of our new home and so thankful to all who helped to make it possible. Your donation gave us new walls - bright and colorful, new carpet, new flooring, new tile, new bathtubs, new countertops and so many things ---- even new “drawers and doors” (what adults call cabinets) in the kitchen. No one person could do it all! It takes a team. We are thankful for each one of you and pray God’s blessings on each member of our Stewart Cottage Team!!! People who love you when you need to be loved are your family. We, in Stewart Cottage, are one big happy family. And, being a big happy family in such a beautiful home makes life, and love, and family just a little more special.

Beginning July 1, charitable gift annuity rates will increase for most donors. This is great news for the many friends of Thornwell. Donors who set up a charitable gift annuity will not only receive the great satisfaction of supporting Thornwell’s ministry to children, but also receive greater payouts on their gifts. Charitable gift annuities are especially attractive for people who have highly appreciated stocks that produce no dividends. By creating a gift annuity, donors can often achieve substantial tax relief and gain an income stream for themselves or a designated recipient. Setting up a gift annuity with Thornwell as the beneficiary is quite easy. Our friends at the Presbyterian Foundation provide professional skill with a pastoral, personal touch to facilitate the process. For over 50 years, the Presbyterian Foundation has partnered with Presbyterian congregations and related organizations to provide donors with guaranteed lifetime income as well as meaningful philanthropic support. For thousands of donors and thousands of beneficiary organizations each year, the Presbyterian Foundation is a trusted partner in bringing people and mission together. “As a national organization, the Foundation manages a large number of life-income gifts on behalf of donors and the organizations they care about. In addition to the capable staff at Thornwell, donors can also call on the Foundation’s resources to ensure that gifts are managed carefully and in a cost-effective fashion,” said Paul Grier, Regional Vice-President, Eastern USA and Acting Chief Development Officer for the Presbyterian Foundation. 18 “Donors can enjoy the benefits of a guaranteed lifetime income (a portion of which is free of income taxes), as well as an immediate charitable deduction for those donors who itemize. Gifts of appreciated securities are especially attractive, in that a portion of capital gains are free of income taxes,” Grier explained. The Presbyterian Foundation’s current rate schedule is downloadable at www.PresbyterianFoundation.org. Please give this opportunity prayerful consideration as you plan your estate and make provisions for charitable giving.

The power to give more... and to receive more with a charitable gift annuity. Be part of the caring ministry of Thornwell Home for Children. Designate a gift in memory or honor of someone you love. Your gift will not only help the children of Thornwell, but it will live on as a lasting legacy to someone who made a difference in your life.
