Psalm 127:4 says that children are like arrows in the hands of a warrior. As parents, we shape our arrows and send them into the future. We decide where to aim. For Christians, the goal is to launch Christ followers, children who know their purpose and will impact the future for Him. We can't control, predict, or fix every challenge our children face, but we can pray to One who loves them more than we do and never leaves them. We can let God use our toughest seasons as parents to grow our faith and turn us into prayer warriors. Join us as we share 5 prayers to pray over this new school year.Ep. 96  Show Notes:o  Pre-order Kari's New Book Is Your Daughter Ready?, Coming Sept. 16, and get amazing pre-order bonuses HEREo Find Mary Lauren on Instagram and at Community Ministry for Girlso  Join Kari on Substack, Instagram, or Facebook; Sign Up for Kari's email listo  Bible Verses for Teenagerso  Kari's New Devo for Teen & College Girls: Yours, Not Hers: 40 Devotions to Stop Comparisons and Love Your Lifeo  Kari's Books: Love Her Well, More Than a Mom, 10 Ultimate Truths Girls Should Know and Liked: Whose Approval Are You Living For?

When the school bell rings for 2025-26, classrooms everywhere will have a chance to learn more about the fantastic care dairy farms give to their calves! It's the "Adopt-A-Cow" program and it's free! Tasha Schleis, dairy farmer in Kewaunee County and board member of Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin, participated last year as a host. Schlies says it was a great experience that helped her better understand the common misunderstandings or questions that most consumers may have. Schlies tells Pam Jahnke that she'll be back engaged in the program this school year with a refreshed vision on why it's such an important tool for dairy farmers to promote and participate in. She says the engagement numbers are incredible! Schlies said in 2024-25 the program impacted over 55,000 students in over 1,550 classes. She exchanged information about her calves with public school teachers, private schools, home schools, daycares, nursing homes and youth groups! It's also interesting to note that 56% of the participants identified as urban, while 44% were considered rural. That reminded Schlies that even rural neighbors might not know about the outstanding care they're giving to their animals. Now Schlies is encouraging more school teachers, nursing homes, daycares - really every organization focused on education to get connected to the program. Registration is open now until September 15th. This year several Wisconsin farms will be sharing their story through the Adopt-A-Cow format. They include: Schleis Farms, Kewaunee WI *returning* OrthRidge Jerseys, Lancaster WI *returning* Nellie Holsteins, Eau Claire WI *new* McFarlandale Dairy, Watertown WI *new* See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
