A Good Week at Advance

EMPLOYED!

We just got word this week that Shawn Bell (second from left with part of his Jobs for Life graduating class) has gone to work at Piggly Wiggly. We love it when grads seek and find employment entirely on their own. Go Shawn!

GRADUATION DAY

Today is another beautiful graduation day at Advance Memphis. Our cup overflows--15 of these 20 grads are going to work IMMEDIATELY through our Staffing Service. Please join us in praying for ALL of these grads. We pray that those who are going to work immediately will make the most of this opportunity. We pray that those who are continuing their search will focus on their goal and be blessed in their efforts. We thank God for WORK.

BRANDY BOUGHT A CAR!

We get so excited when a graduate who is participating in our IDA (matched savings) Program earns enough to purchase a car. Talk about a tangible reward! In this video, Brandy explains why her car purchase is important to her, and how the IDA Program helped her feel confident about the purchase. It's under two minutes, but it's enough to help you understand why this program is so important. Check it out!








HEBREWS 10:35-36

Do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.
