Hayes Barton Church Opens Kennedy Home Swimming Pool

07.16.2010

The Kennedy Home children and staff are grateful to Hayes Barton Baptist Church, Raleigh NC, for providing the funds to open the campus swimming pool this summer. Not only did they give the money for the initial maintenance cost, but also purchased new pool furniture, and personally supervised the project. The swimming pool area looks beautiful!! The church’s youth spent last week with us doing ministry events and work projects, such as a Luau at the pool, a scavenger hunt, Bible study, crafts, tutoring and lots and lots more. Kennedy Home is very blessed to have such a great friend.
