Our guest this year is Renee Martin. Renee was born in Nashville and raised on country music. She has toured for over 20 years as a soloist and featured background vocalist for Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Patty Lovelace, Pam Tillis, Billy Dean and countless other artists in pop, country and gospel music.
Renee has seen many dreams come true in her lifetime, but God has shown her an even bigger plan. During a sold out show with Tim and Faith, at Madison Square Garden in 2000, God said, “This was as big as you could dream, but I can dream bigger.” As Renee looked out into the audience of 25,000 fans, all she could think was, “I wonder if these people are truly happy, if they know where their kids are, and do they know the Lord?” At that moment, Renee knew this would be her last tour in country music.
Her story only gets better from there. She has dedicated the rest of her life to passing on the beloved gift of grace. Please plan to share the day with us and allow Renee to “be Jesus to you.”

The NAFCON women have had the privilege of helping Rahab’s Hideaway, over the past few months.
Together, we have provided several pieces of furniture & appliances & loaned out our “handy-man”, Shelly Parker, & his pick-up truck.
Marlene Carsen, who founded & runs Rahab’s, is just terrific to work with & has been very grateful of the help that has been provided.
At the beginning of April, she shared with us the burden on her heart to find someone to sponsor two of the young women who reside at Rahab’s.
They were graduating from YouthBuild Columbus on June 13. They would receive their high school diplomas in addition to their STNA (nursing assistant) Certificates from Columbus State. Neither young woman had family to provide for them & Marlene was praying that she could find sponsors for both girls.
We were so glad that we were able to sponsor Alex & then we were blessed by the opportunity to sponsor Rosie, as well.
Alex is planning to attend the University of Akron in the fall & Rosie, who was the valedictorian of their class, wants very much to be a hairdresser.
The NAFCON women gave from their hearts as they provided money & gifts for Alex & Rosie.
Here are some photos from their graduation weekend:
Thank you, Tracy, from Stik ‘Em Up Signs, for providing the yard sign.
Here’s Alex opening her gifts:
And - Rosie liking the cash! 
Rosie & Alex celebrating!

A big thanks to Rita Acker for providing the limo!
Congratulations Alex & Rosie for a job well done. You worked hard & stayed the course. May God bless you & keep you as you begin this next part of your journey. Live your lives for the one who is faithful & who will never leave you nor forsake you. We’ll be praying for you that God will meet all of your needs according to the riches found in Christ Jesus.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart; lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him & He will keep your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6
And - dear NAFCON women – thank you for all you did to make Alex & Rosie’s Graduation Weekend a happy & memorable time for them.
Blessings -
Randee & the ICU Team
