The White House
The grounds of the White House are well taken care of by professionals. The property of the White House has 18 acres of prime real estate.
As I viewed the beautiful pond with a fountain spiraling upwards surrounded by beautiful red flowers and rocks to give it a distinctive edge, I thought of professional companies in Greenville, SC, Franklin County, GA, Bethany, OK, and San Jose, CA, who could very easily take on providing shrubbery and flowers for our colleges and university.
They are Holmes Bible College, Emmanuel College, Southwestern Christian University, and Advantage College. The outward appearance or curb appeal is vitally important in promoting our colleges.
We are entering again the season called Vision 4 Education, formerly named Feast of Ingathering, when the ladies of Women's Ministries will converge on these campuses with gifts of money to provide funding for our institutions of Christian Higher Education and scholarships for students.
Let us dream big dreams for our church schools. May God bless them, the leaderships, faculty, staff, and students.

White House
PRESIDENTIAL OFFICE AND RESIDENCE, WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, UNITED STATES

See Article History
Alternative Titles: Executive Mansion, President’s Palace
White House, formerly Executive Mansion (1810–1902), the official office and residence of the president of the United States at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue N.W. in Washington, D.C. The White House and its landscaped grounds occupy 18 acres (7.2 hectares). Since the administration of George Washington (1789–97), who occupied presidential residences in New York and Philadelphia, every American president has resided at the White House. Originally called the “President’s Palace” on early maps, the building was officially named the Executive Mansion in 1810 in order to avoid connotations of royalty. Although the name “White House” was commonly used from about the same time (because the mansion’s white-gray sandstone contrasted strikingly with the red brick of nearby buildings), it did not become the official name of the building until 1902, when it was adopted by President Theodore Roosevelt (1901–09). The White House is the oldest federal building in the nation’s capital.
