hurricane.
i know that Franklin Graham has suggested that
churches across america adopt this approach. i do not
know what went into deciding to send supplies and
teams to rebuild.
i know that all religous organizations are doing
different things to hekp. what is sort of remarkable
to me is the number of people making multiple
donations. i thought of it with masg's last post.
she'd made a second donation and would donate time
too.
judy made a donation for what she thought we could
aford, then i made another donation and my 18 old made
a donation and helped load a truck. i have seen many
examples of people giving and then giving again. i
hope that we begin to get people back on there feet.
