Here it is nearly a month passing and I can only say that when there is progress happening in so many directions it is difficult for me to get to the blog. I can say this... a huge "Thanks" to the countless numbers of responders from TX, IN, GA, MO, IA, OR, MN, MI, and GA (again)!!! The work on rebuild that has been happening is, for a lack of a better word "AMAZING". I hope I don't miss any as I try to list them, Miss Marie, Miss Naomi, St. Paul's Church, Spring Church, Miss Pilar, Miss, Hai, Miss Terri, Mr. Richard, Miss Clarise, Miss Jeannie, Miss Cathy, Paul and Susan, Mr.Ralph, Nareen and Clinton, Miss Terese, Mr.Randy, Vern and Nina, Pastor Nathan, Miss Dennings, Carl and Marilyn. Of all these listed only about 4 of them were demolition. We are head strong into rebuilding homes.
The skilled laborers have been coming on all teams and those who did not have a skill when they came are going home with one. The leaders of the teams and other skilled people were just incredible when it came to teaching other responders.
We have been so blessed to have all of them. The home owners are seeing more than hope they are experiencing love from all the efforts being poured on them.
Within camp there have been some amazing GOD moments! I wish everyone would be able to tune in during the after dinner hours to be a part of the days experiences. The life-changing occurrences that have been shared are next to and even qualifying as miraculous!
There are 6 more teams in next week starting to arrive as soon as tomorrow afternoon so it will be another quick turn-around week-end. Our prayers are for those leaving and those coming in. Next week the teams are coming in from NY, VA, MO, and 2 from IN. It is spring break for some so the camp will be filled with nearly 70 people once again. We love a full house! Lives will be blessed by all the PROGRESS!!!!
We were blessed today by a donation from a local school. One of the classes has been holding some fundraising and they presented us with their donations today. I just did not know what a huge area I am in.. oh, I know the population is the 4th largest in the nation but, this school was only 9th grade and there were over 1000 kids in the school. It was a glass of about 30 who blessed us by there efforts!
Continued prayer for all we are doing to help and for all the travels of those going and coming into camp. We also ask for prayer over their families as the answer God's call to come help!
