Zach is a 17 year old boy who has shared our home on two separate occasions. He turned 17 a few days after Kegan. It is rough for any teenage boy and rougher yet when there are problems in the home. One learns not to expect much more from teenagers who come to live in your home than to provide them with a safe environment. A place where they can continue to grow and possibly learn a little bit about choices. Also learning the choices they make will designate the course of their lives.
I found Zach to be a sweet young man in much need of someone to love him. Someone that he felt he could trust. As do most teens, he felt all he needed was "Freedom to do as he choose."
He enjoyed going to church with us. I pray that he, in the least, learned God loves him. I know he learned to pray. This gives me joy and hope in my heart.
