Painting begins this week at the Community Care Home !!!!


After a very kind donation for this project, we will begin the restoration project for the bedrooms at the community care home!!  It is our intent to transform all of their bed rooms for them. it is our desire that their bed rooms be bright and warm for them. Not only will we paint these rooms but we are going buy all new bedding and comforters for them.

God has truly blessed us to be able to help these wonderful folks.  I would like to ask if all of our supporters would add these folks to your prayer list,  please remember them each day.

I will post the before and after photos next week.

Church of All Nations Orlando, Fla.


This week we attended Church in Orlando Fla.
After a wonderful service and during alter call Susan noticed a lady that lingered at the alter. We both could see the profound sadness on her. Susan began to pray with her and talk with her there. Her story was very sad indeed. She says that she is alone in this world no family no friends. She only had a dog as her companion for the last 13 years. This pet became sick and died just recently. She tells Susan that she just did not want to live any more. Right there God sent down a word for this lady Susan relayed the word that God had given for her.  I stood away and watched this all occur. I could see as the heart break begin to heal right there in front of me. God was working this hurt and pain out for her right there at the alter. She let heart cry out at that alter and God himself sent the "peace be still". He is kind and just!  his answer is yes and amen!!

What a day we had in Orlando !!!  God is kind and just!!!  Ask what you will he will answer you!!!!

Today in Santee S.C. at a local restaurant


Today while My wife Susan and her Sister Eileen and I were eating breakfast in Santee SC.  Susan noticed a man in  the rear of the restaurant eating alone. There was just something about him that would not let Susan go. We could tell that there was some type of sadness about him. As we ate and continued our conversation Susan just got up and went over to his table and introduced herself. She sat down and had a nice conversation with him. As I was watching from across the room I could tell he was feeling better, it seemed that his smile had come back just a bit. 

When Susan came back to the table she told us that he said that his wife had just died not too long ago and he was having a great deal of trouble with the loneliness and the heartbreak of losing her. Susan gave some very kind words of encouragement. It did seem to help him.

Think about this for a moment...How many times in our busy life do we just blast past someone in need of a smile or a kind word???  I would ask that we all slow down just a bit and look around us...pay attention to that small still voice that says.."be nice".
