The Big Sunday


Well, today was a little disappointing. We woke up to snow reports on the TV and they were advising everyone to not go out unless it was absolutely necessary. Looking out the window it wasn't too bad so Mike was going to go ahead and I would follow. He came back inside a few minutes later, he had turned the car on to warm up before loading it up and locked the keys inside. His truck was parked in front of the garage door and my car was in the garage. We didn't have an extra key and the extra fob had a dead battery so we took apart my fob to see if my battery would work in his fob and it didn't. He called a locksmith and they were going to come out and then he found another fob and that actually opened the door. By this time he was runnuing really late. The devil was working overtime, I swear.
A lot of people from the church came out to help but we only had one family turn up. They had just moved into the area from Egypt. They had an interpreter with them and they stayed for the church service and all. We will try and help them find jobs this next week. I am still excited, good things can come from small beginnings.

  1. Are you advertising your breakfast when people come to your food pantry?

  2. Yes, we are advertising when they come in and we sent out over two hundred postcards to people who had come in, in the last six months. We also have a large sign out front advertising it.
