The Old Run Down House

Today we were contacted by the Sumter Police Dept. who told us of a family that had very hard times fall on them. He lost his job, she was very ill and her prognosis was not good, they lost their home, due to no job ...No medical insurance.....THEN THEY WERE HOMELESS...just like that.  Now the they live in a very old farm house that is in bad disrepair. No stove, no refrigerator, no air conditioner, no power in parts of the home. Just a bad situation all around. When I met with them in the house the temp. had to be 105 deg....They both expresses a feeling of no hope. just... no hope at all!!

after a very nice visit God allowed us to install 2 new window air conditioners and a microwave oven for them. very soon it will be under 80 deg in the home and now they will be able to cook a bit. Some how our visit seemed to restore some hope for them. God is in the hope business. When we walk in love and express compassion, we restore hope for someone. God please bless these kind folks and restore their hope.
