Dear Friends,
We are encouraged and excited and that is all because of you our supporters that have kept the mission of Bethany House going. You have helped our young pregnant women overcome odds and stumbling blocks and have encouraged them by your giving.
Over 30 young women came seeking housing through our Sponsor Family Program while finding appropriate housing for other women through the Gresham & Portland area. Four of these young ladies have come overcome the odds of joblessness and now have their own apartments. That is exciting!!

Jamila: becoming successful and independent
"My experiences from living with my Sponsor Family were more than I expected. I came here to Oregon from Hawaii to give my daughter up for adoption. After I gave birth to my baby girl, I could not give her up. Afterwards the adoption agency had to cut me off and I had nowhere to go. I called Bethany House and Beth call back with news of a Sponsor Family that was interested in meeting with me and decided I would fit with their family. We still hangout and go to church together and they adore my little girl. My Sponsor Family to this day are still in my life and are more than that we are family. We love each other. I would like to give a special Thank You to Bethany House, the Supporters and to my Sponsor Family for all their love and support. =)
"My daughter and I are living in our own apartment and I am currently enrolled in Clackamas County Community College working toward a Degree in Business."

Director's Corner
I want to personally thank all our dedicated Sponsor Families for making Bethany House the unique program it is, for loving women and children and modeling what a healthy family looks like. You are profoundly chang-ing lives. I celebrate your generosity and grace.
Monthly Supporters, we couldn’t function without your diligent support. Your steadfast giving, despite economic challenges, proves that God is indeed at work and bless-ing those so in need of His love. Thank you, All! - Beth
