Hurricane Irene 2 It's after midnight and we've been going at it since 5:30 this morning with devos at the Barnabas House (which I am truly blessed to be part of). More and more guys come to study each time we get a chance to share God's Word. It was standing room only in the small house this morning and these guys are really hungry for the Word! Keep them in your prayers! Saul, the house captain where we have devos on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, has decided to go with us to help out with Irene's aftermath. He helped us get things ready and all loaded up. I just dropped him off for some sleep before we head out tommorow morning. I still have one small service call to do in the morning and a quick trip to Lowe's and Sam's Club. I'll then pick up Saul and our good friend Brian, who is finally feeling well enough to join us as we head to NC to be ready to get in and help those affected by the storm as soon as possible. We have a couple of options of where to spend the time waiting and will determine where we go based on how the storm is progressing. We want to stay out of harm's way! We've already been in touch with a few different pastors in areas that may be hit by Irene and they will be keeping in touch with us so that we can best assess how to help when the time comes. We will be looking for people to join in the efforts and can use anyone with any skill set or not! Just come with a heart to serve and God will use you beyond your wildest imagination! Please contact us as soon as you can so that we can set things up. We will probably be there for at least two weeks if not longer. Please pray for those affected by the storm and all of those, like us, who will be going in to help them. Pray that The Lord would be honored and glorified in all we say and do and that lives would be drawn to Him during this time. As usual, we will be having our team devotions twice a day so pray for unity and growth during this time for our team, whoever that may be! If you feel led to help with the expenses for this trip please follow the instructions below. Thanks for all your prayers and support. Proclaiming the Lord in all we do, In season and out of season.
