A Prayer For Today

Heavenly Father, we thank you for your incredible love, wisdom and precious Word. God we ask that you manifest your holy presence to those in need of healing, restoration, power, protection and fellowship.

We pray that you open up our hearts, so we don't hesitate to believe that we can

do all things, through Jesus Christ who strengthens us. We know when seeking

you, we must be sincere, and be ready to make a deeper commitment. We know

you are serious about producing the change in us that will glorify you. Father, we

pray for your secrets, the truth and the way. Help us think and speak words to

bring forth positive results. Help us align our talents as it relates to your

purpose. Thank you for enlightening our conscience.

Thank you for your guidance, mercy and grace.

God bless Troy and Troy’s House. We strive to obey your will and follow your

peaceful path. We promise to give you glory. Amen

Where Do We Go

From Here?

Build a solid foundation, and

increase online and offline mar-

keting, advertising, promotions,

public relations, mobile text

What Is Troy’s House?

Troy’s House provides hospital housing to families that visit their loved ones in

the hospital. We help patients stay connected with family and friends in their

time of need. In addition, we provide housing for out -patients receiving treat-

ments when they travel over 100 miles, one way, to medical facility. Troy’s House

shall provide a room, food, transportation, or hotel vouchers to 99.9% of

people whom travel to visit Central Coast hospitals.

Because of our own experiences, the need for hospital housing on the Central

Coast of California is imperative. Troy’s family and friends wanted to visit him

on a regular basis, but could not due to cost of gas, food and hotels.

“When you think of Troy’s House, think of friends” www.troyshouse.org

What Is Included Hospital House Lodging?

At Troy's House, most rooms shall have two beds and

the comforts of home. Guests are responsible for

keeping their room clean during their stay and may

exchange their linen each week. Personal laundry

facility shall be located on the premises for no charge.

A shuttle service shall be provided for runs between

Troy's House, in Ventura County, and local hospitals.

Does Troy’s House Have Food?

Yes. Our kitchen and pantry shall be stocked

with food donated by local businesses. We shall

encourage staff and the community volunteers

to cook at Troy’s House on a scheduled basis.

Families are welcome to prepare their own meals.

Guests may purchase, label and store

food in the kitchen.

HER BIRTHDAY WISH!!!

Leslie, THANK YOU for donating your birthday gifts to Troy’s House. You are a loyal

and amazing friend.

I cannot explain to you how much

your friendship has meant to me over

the past 35+ years. Your presence in

my life is felt every day. I talk to you

all the time in my head. I wish I wrote

to you as much as I talk to you;

you'd have boxes and boxes of

letters. I remember us talking on the

phone for four hours our senior year.

Four hours!!! I've never talked to

anyone else that long. Do you remem-

ber that? I have other great

memories with you that I won't write

down but I will remember them

always. I hope you have a fabulous

birthday surrounded by family and

friends. I so wish I could be there

with you but you know you have my

heart - always have and always will.

Love you Leslie

Troy Back In The Day!

8th grade graduation picture!

I have known Troy since Jr. High. In fact , I only lived a few blocks away

on Lancer avenue! Troy has always been a joy to be around! Even though he was a "ladies man" a big flirt and football star,

he never had a "big head". He was kind to everyone, it didn't matter to him what "group" you were in. He was funny and charming.....he still is! If I am ever able

to afford to go home for a visit I will most certainly take a road trip to see him!

Unfortunately the last time I saw Troy was around our 10 year high school

reunion. …....way too

long!

There are values in life that you cannot place a monetary

value on. Faith, Love, Courage, Integrity, Trust, Truth, and

Honesty are in a club, of just a few. Troy, these are values

that you possess, that many people in society will never at-

tain for various reasons. Troy, your DNA contains these

values, which makes me proud to be your Brother-in-Law,

and a lifetime member.

Happy Birthday My Brother, Love Mario

A Birthday Prayer From Wade Nelson

Father God, Thank you for my brother, Troy, who

has been an unshakable teammate (willing to

carry us all on his shoulders) & the utmost loyal

friend! I ask that you continue to give him the

courage and strength that he requires to run his

race to the fullest, fighting the good fight, as he

provides us all with an amazing example of de-

termination, tenacity, & willingness to battle

through the daily struggles of this life. Fill his

mind with your peace and his heart with an abun-

dance of your love so it radiates out of him, al-

lowing anyone that crosses Troy’s path (believer

or non) to experience a tangible piece of your presence.

Psalm 37 assures us that if we delight in you, you will be sure to give us the desires of our hearts. So as Troy celebrates his 50th birthday, I confidently stand on your word and respectfully ask that you give him his hearts desires. I pray that you allow him to fulfill his dreams, be overflowing with your joy, living life to the fullest. And may all that Troy does, bring you glory!

In the mighty name of Jesus, Amen

WE LOVE TROY!

A Message From Troy

Thank you for

your prayers,

and support.

Dear Uncle Troy, this letter is dedicated to you

from your oldest nephew Wendell Hayes Jr.

I appreciate all the advise you have given me

over the years.

I am so glad I have followed them and listened

because it made me a much better person

than I already was. I became wiser too. It is

such a great honor of having you as an uncle.

I am so so so so glad that you are my uncle.

You cracked me up when you and I were both

making fun of Puff Daddy, Mase and all those

other jokers. You were saying instead of their

company being called bad boy records, their

record label company should be called

tee hee records lol.

One of the best moments I remember when

I graduated from Hancock College wearing

my robe and cap, as soon as I entered into the

auditorium with thousands of other students,

your face was the first face I saw. I just

wanna say happy 50th birthday uncle Troy

and it is such a great honor being your

nephew, One luv

Wendell Hayes Jr.
