Hi Guys,
Well, I haven't heard from Chris any more since Saturday afternoon so
I have absolutely no idea where he is. However, I took the
innitiative this morning to contact the agency that called me on
Friday about having a possible opening for Chris and it might be an
okay thing, if he takes it seriously. This program is called,
"life." It is a community action program. They pay for rent on
certain apartments in the city. It is for kids between the ages of
17--21. They push the kids to either finish school or get their
G.E.D. and work a 40 hour a week job. Their goal is to also help the
kids learn to budget and save money. At least Chris would be
accountable to someone again if he took advantage of this help. I
told the man that I talked to to try to leave a message at the high
school, but that, otherwise, I have no idea where he even is. I know
that this program isn't a permanent answer, but at least it might be
a place for Chris to park for a bit and, maybe, get his head on
straight. i don't know. Actually, the reason that they want to get
hold of him is because he needs to take some psychological testing to
get into the final acceptance part of the program. I don't know if
this is the right thing for Chris or not. I also know that Chris
could really mess up this opportunity as he has so many
others. Maybe I'm just writing to you guys as a mother who is
clinging to another hope being extended. I know that the counselor
wasn't happy to hear that Chris had quit McDonalds and had begun
working for a tella marketing place. I can't even tell you guys how
to pray for Chris, but please just keep praying for him.
Kathy
