August- 2024-2025 School Year

As the 2024-2025 school year begins, we pray over all of the teachers, students, parents, staff and faculty for a safe and successful school year full of God's many blessings.

Children with cancer/life-threatening illnesses often don't get to attend school due to suppressed immune systems. The families face many challenges including extra financial burdens and stress due to hospital stays. Your continued support gives hope to these families also through our gifts and financial assistance programs.

In September, we will be fundraising for pediatric cancer cure research. Our goal is to help medical institutions find better treatments and eventually cures so that no parent loses their child to this horrible disease.

In addition, throughout the year, you can help by sharing our nonprofit information with businesses you think may be interested in helping these children thorugh our programs. You can have them contact: brenda@angelheartofhope.org for a sponsor packet and remind them that we are a 501(c)(3) and that their contributions are tax-deductible. They can also view the Sponsor tab for more information on our website: www.angelheartofhope.org

Our Golden Sponsor is Johnston Orthodontics. If you or your child needs an AWESOME orthodontist, look no further, and call 864-877-2929 or visit: www.johnstonorthodontics.com. We are so thankful for the excellent care that they provided to Bella and our family.

Also, our other Golden Sponsor is Intra-Cloud Dynamics by Alicia Keener. To advance your consulting skills, let Alicia share her Microsoft Dynamics D365 F&SC expertise with you! For more info: www.intraclouddynamics.com

Our Silver Sponsor is D&D Motors. If you are looking to buy or sell a vehicle, please don't look any further for excellent service and contact them at 888-253-5950 or visit: www.ddmotors.com

Also, our other Silver Sponsors are A&B Horizons, Ion ERP Inc.

We are truly humbled and blessed to be on this journey of faith and have a Prayer tab on our website for anyone needing prayer. If you would like me to add your name to the prayer list, please email me at: brenda@angelheartofhope.org and I will update the prayer list regularly. You can also email me with any specific prayer requests that you want me to pray about privately. Please pray for our ministry, the families we serve and the medical teams that care for children with life- threatening illnesses.

Hera Lainey has legally changed her to name to Thomasin Grace. She is a music singing artist and a dear friend who created a single "Some People Never", written and sung by her in memory of Bella. It is available for purchase on itunes and various music sites. 100% of the proceeds from this song will go towards our ministry! It is a beautiful tribute! Thomasin's website is still: www.heralainey.com. 

If you donate to UNITED WAY through your paycheck, you can have our ministry as the recipient. Just write/type in Bella Muntean- Angel Heart of Hope Ministry. If you have chosen our ministry as a recipient of United Way, please feel free to let me know because we would like to thank you since United Way is unable to release donor information.

Also, if you make any donations on our FACEBOOK page please let us know because they don't release donor information.

The monthly message for July is "A Life of Peace." As I watch the Olympics and see the countries competing in peace and camaraderie, it gives me hope for our future generations.

In Perth, Australia, there's a place called Shalom House that helps men struggling with addictions. The caring staff members introduce them to God's shalom (Hebrew for peace). Many lives that are oppressed under the weight of addiction to drugs, gambling, alcohol and other behaviors, are being transformed by the love of God.

Vital to this transformation is the message of the cross. The broken people of Shalom House discover that through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, they can find their own lives resurrected. In Christ, we gain true peace and healing.

Peace isn't the absence of conflict but the presence of God's wholeness in our hearts. We all go through trials and tribulations in our lives that can be overwhelming and gripping of fear and anxiety. However, all of us can experience this shalom; it's only found in Christ and the Holy Spirit that resides in us. In scripture, Paul pointed the Galatians to the Spirit's transformational work and hearts that can be changed. When the Holy Spirit is in us, it generates the fruits of love, joy, patience and peace. The Holy Spirit is what gives us a crucial element of true and enduring peace.

With ongoing wars, health crises, addictions, daily worries and uncertainties for our future plus the spiritual battles all around and inside of us, the Spirit enables us to live in shalom. We know that we can bring our worries, doubts, fears, needs and concerns to our heavenly Father. Surrendering it all to Him, brings us "the peace of God, which transcends all understanding"- the peace that will guard hearts and minds in Christ Jesus."

Living with Christ's spirit in our hearts, we can experience true shalom no matter what happens because we know that God is with us.

Scripture verse: Philippians 4:7  The peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus.

Wishing you all many blessings!

In Peace and Love,

Brenda
