Today was unbelievable. When I was at church last night working out there was the same pile from Sunday plus four to five more bags. Then I walked in tonight and the entire wall was covered in donations. Plus the pile from Sunday in a storage room. I couldn't believe it. The donations kept coming in all night from our LifeChurch family. Tomorrow I wouldn't doubt the pile to double or triple. I question the fact that I thought so small in this outreach. When God is wanting to take care of his children he isn't going to come through in a small way. Of course he will out do my expectations. I was having a feeling he was about to explode in sending generous people our way when we had a couple of 18 wheelers offered for us to use. I myself can't make a difference in the world, but with God and a few other like minded people we can make a huge difference. I am so humbled tonight. Thank you to everyone who is making this outreach happen. It all started with April going to visit her parents and wanting to fill her car when she went. Now it is 23 people going to deliver several truck loads and working to clean up.
Now that I got that off of my chest there are a few things we are needing. First we need more food to take. Boxed/canned food and always some peanut butter. Well it doesn't have to be peanut butter but we are lacking on food! Second we need a lot more toiletries. We really didn't get much toilet paper or shaving gel. Last is a big one but I know God will provide. We really could use a uhaul truck to get everything there. Right now we have a truck and horse trailer as a definite. Please call me (Courtney) if you have one you could donate. My number is on the right side of your screen.
Thank you again for your generosity and I am so grateful for everyone who has made this happen!
