Special Needs

Hi everyone!
 
Wasn't yesterday a wonderful time to sense the power of God at work among us?  It is so refreshing to hear and see how the Lord is touching hearts and changing lives.
 
I needed to bring two special needs to everyone's attention - one new one and one that we've already announced:
 
First, Hope is throwing a "Food Shower" for Brian and Gretchen Milks.  They are in a very difficult situation right now, and I believe God would have us to reach out and help meet this need.  Their cupboard is "bare" and we need to restock it!  You can bring food items or household goods - or you could get some gift cards from a grocery store for them.  In any case, bring your donations on Wednesday night or next Sunday (with your Operation Christmas Child boxes!).  I know this will be an outpouring of caring and concern for this family and will encourage them as they seek God's direction for their lives and their soon to be born baby!
 
Second, several men have seen me about this Saturday's workday.  Lorraine Otis is helping by getting a lunch together for the crew.  If you want to help with lunch, give Lorraine a call (686-1557) or email her at lorraineotis@comcast.net.  Ed Yost's address is 1837 Good Intent Road, Deptford, NJ 08096.  His phone is 227-7410.  If you want to help and haven't told me personally, please call me (881-4766) or email me (reply to this message) and let me know that you're coming.  As long as the weather cooperates, we'll have a great time together and a great chance to encourage and help this family in preparing for the coming winter!
 
Thanks everyone - don't forget about Contagious Christian training starting Wednesday night (7pm at firehall)
