Jamie....

Well, we visited Jamie over the weekend. She is very happy and looks very well. It was very weird listening to her talk about god so much and how she's been delivered from heroin, smoking, cussing, etc. We took some pics and instead of saying "Cheese" she said "Jesus". We all just kinda laughed. It seems like a very nice place. The live in a house 10 girls total right now and 3 staff. Then down the street is their school and a dorm like area where the men stay. Unfortunately it is in a very bad area. Jamie said their have been several drive-bys and the director was almost shot, but it hit his car door instead of him. She also said its pretty common to hear gunshots. Can you imagine.

Eric & I are realists, so we can't help but wonder what will happen when her year is up. She was talking about becoming an intern for the actual teenage part of it. I think she would be good at it. Honestly, I think she can never come back to this area (Indiana) and stay clean. I guess we'll just hope and pray (litteraly) that this sticks!
