CHERRY STREET YOUTH CENTER

The Cherry Street Youth Center was the result of one woman responding to God's call. Night after night Barbara Prier wrote down on paper what she felt God was saying to her. After much prayer, things began to fall in place. Doors were opened as God provided people to support Mrs. Prier with their encouragement, their talents, their finances, their prayers, and their time. A group of men and women who had a heart for the kids in Chanute joined with Barbara and together they bought a house and a vacant lot on the corner of Forest & Cherry...
