Dear Mrs Sloan:

Thank you for graciously sharing with us the miracle of God in your life. God graciously allowed me to serve at North Valley Baptist Church in a bus ministry since 1987. I am still driving the bus picking up family. It is encouraging to read your story. Your story is typical of many bus children that I have worked with. But that is how our God works. From a life of hopelessness, God creates a life through whom all hope stems from. I will continue to drive the bus for many more years to come because He lives.

Jolene, Ive heard your testimony many times but hearing it from you makes it seem like I’m hearing it for the very first time. And it makes me think about myself being a bus kid! And for the fact that I got to graduate from Windsor Hills Baptist School. I remember everyone begging my mom for me to be able to go and she always said no. Then my senior year of high school, she said YES!! And although that was one of my hardest years in school, It was great because that just goes to show you how God DOES provide and answers prayer.

Thank you Jolene for sharing your testimony. You are one special lady and friend. I pray that God continues to use you in a wonderful way in the lives of those orphans and the people of Ukraine.

Yes, the bus ministry is alive and well and providing the means by which so many children are introduced to the Lord. Our oldest bus kid is a retired lady, and young ones are in booster seats. It was such a bus ministry that introduced us to our church almost twelve years ago when we were first in the neighborhood. I give thanks that it has not only continued, but grown by leaps and bounds. It is a blessing to hear of so much coming from such a program.

Jolene is my cousin. We all miss her here so much. Knowing that the Lord’s work is being done through her makes the time away worth it though. Our past does not predict our future…Jolene is living proof. Saw a familiar name on here as well, Bro. Steve also led me to Christ. Just wanted to take a chance to say hello and thank you to him as well.

We love you Jolene

Jolene’s story is a true testament to the love and mercy of God. I met her when she toured for her college and also when she toured for deputation, and the joy of the Lord is present in her! Praise the Lord for their continued work in Ukraine.

Thanks, Jolene for your stirring testimony-Even though I heard it before, I never heard some of the more heart breaking details. Praise the Lord for the bus ministry! I am humbled that the Lord allowed me the opportunity to be a part of it for so long-the best part of it is getting to know so many precious children (and some of their parents) and developing a love for them and seeing them saved, and growing in the Lord. Thank you again and say hello to David for me- God Bless you and your family and ministry. Bro.Steve Packard
