A last minute gift of warmth...

It looks like we are going to have some extra cargo space available for our trip down to Louisiana Saturday. If you would like to help meet the needs of people Tammany Oaks is serving, you can bring donations to the Spring Road Church of Christ 74 North Spring Road, Westerville, Ohio after 5:00pm tomorrow, Friday January 13 or before 8:00 Saturday, our departure time. Their #1 request is for electric space heaters to heat homes where there is no gas due to flooding. Believe it or not, it gets cold down there at night in the winter. There is also the usual list of items on http://whereisawjesus.blogspot.com.

Please do not leave donations in the church, but place them in the red trailer in the parking lot. If logistics fall through and it’s not there, put them in the bed of my truck, the blue Dodge RAM with a cap.

Be sure to read our blog daily this week to follow our work at http://servantsunite.blogspot.com.

The last request I have for you is an easy one. Write a couple of sentences of encouragement to the folks at Tammany Oaks who have been fighting this fight non stop for more than 4 months. Satan is whispering discouragements in their ear and the weight of the task and responsibility that they have taken on is getting tough. Use the email address to post to their blog, whereisawjesus@gmail.com. Be sure to put your name and city on your note. If you prefer I deliver it directly to them and not post it on their blog let me know. Also, please pray for strength for them and others like them who are working so diligently to be a beacon in the darkness and gloom that has settled there.

I pray for blessings on all of you for your hard work and persistence helping in this effort.
