It's never easy to step out in faith but one thing is for certain when you do.... God will give you the strength to get the job done even when you think you should be exhausted. The four guys from Missouri have worked non-stop since they arrived. Fred was even suffering from a respiratory problem but remained on task.... just amazing to see the dedication. The house that they were working in today was that of a woman who when they evacuated she and her husband for got to take their meds with them so when they were not allowed to get back home for over a week later, they had already crashed. Unfortunately the husband died as a result. The woman is now in a nursing home and her son is taking on her loss of property along with his own home and his business. By the grace of God the Pastor of the Vineyard Church in Galveston, they were led to Mercy Response. We and this small team of men from MO are blessed to be able to help them.
James (the Son) and his wife Debra expressed being overwhelmed with all of it but amazed that we came in and helped them get it done.
There will be a few people from a local Houston Vineyard going in to this same house on Saturday to tear down the ceilings and to clean up the back yard of debris. there are a couple of trees that we hope to get cleared out as well.
Stepping out in faith like these guys is not always easy but one thing is a given.... it is always rewarding!
