Fire relief

Thursday, 8/25/2011, with help from the Wesleyan Church and county trustee, Mr. Machalski, a very deep need was identified.  A family from a total burn down was living in a tent at Mini Mountain Campground.  That manager rented a house, next door to the campground, to this family and when we got  to the house we found 7 people sleeping on the floor.
Volunteers were called and the truck was loaded.  Now 7 people are sleeping in beds.  They have a table to gather at for meals.  They have sofas to sit on to relax.  They have a TV and a few dishes and many other things.
From this contact a Reserve worker has helped all 5 children enroll in school
Another Reserve worker helped a shipment of food to be delivered Friday morning.

God is leading this work.  This level of assistance would not be possible without his leading.

We will try to continue this work.
