Deborah has started a new center for children. It is called the Family
Resource and Recovery Center and it is located on 13th and Missouri, Suite 100.
If you are in Behavioral Studies you should go down and take a tour.
Current News
Off to Korea
Our son recently (January of 2009) left for Korea to teach in a small
school about 5 minutes from North Korea. We miss him but know God is going to
stretch him and teach him many new things. He will be a blessing to those
he meets and his mom and I will definitely have to go over and visit him.
Update January 2010 - We just finished a fantastic visit with J and Siwon (his
fiance). The pictures at the top of the home page are of them, enjoy.

My Dad's Book
My father has just finished writing a book and my brother and I finally got
it published. It is titled "How Big is Your God?" and dedicates one
chapter each to the different names Scripture gives to God in the Old Testament.
You can go to Amazon and buy it now, yea!!!! In the search box put the
title and my fathers name - Richard Pettitt. I had no idea how long it
would take to get this done, but we are certainly excited that it is out there
now.
Warren's Family
My Wife
Deborah is my wife of 39 years. That can not be possible. She
has a fantastic heart for the Lord and works at the Family Resource and
Recovery Center. She is the Director of Attachment Therapy and her
greatest desire in all the world is to see hurting children come to
wholeness in Christ. If you want to see a place that puts a smile on the
heart of God I suggest you stop by for a visit. They are located at
1300 East Missouri Street, in Phoenix. Here are a few
photos of my fantastic family - Click on an image and it will stop rotating and
enlarge. Click again and it will spin.
My Daughter
Keturah is my daughter and is married to a wonderful young man - Aaron.
They both have a heart for developmentally disabled young people and adults.
They live in a community called Goldensun that works with about 20
developmentally disabled adults. Keturah is working at the school our
grandson Cade goes to within a developmentally disabled classroom.
Aaron is now working for a nonprofit organization called
Toby House which has about 20 houses located
around the valley. The Mission of Toby House is to
provide peace and happiness for adults living with serious mental illness.
Again, if you want to go to a place that brings a smile to the heart of God
I suggest you stop by there house on a Monday night (Goldensun community
supper night) to experience the love of God.
My Son
Jeremy has now gone to Korea to teach in a small school outside of Seoul.
I am sure he would appreciate your prayers as he is transitioning into a totally new
culture. J has always been a great backpacking partner and for a little
while I will have to go it alone. J has a young lady -Siwon- who is the
love of his life and lives in Korea.
My Grandchild
Caedmon brings way to much joy into the life of Deborah and I. What does he like to do? Lets see I think
it is soccer season now, next it will be basketball and after that baseball. Saturday mornings are usually
taken up watching goals, hoops, and runs scored. When he spends a night with Nana and Papa Peter Piper is
always around the corner.

Courage
Our Therapy Dog
Courage is a 3 year old Portuguese Water Dog who goes to work 3 or 4 times a
week with Deborah. The Family Resource and Recovery Center puts
him to work helping children heal. I often look at him and think....
how can I get a job where all I have to do is go to work and play with kids?
