Tornado Relief-1

We’ve been contacted by and have contacted some of our friends in areas that have been hit by the deadly tornados that ripped through several states on Wednesday.
 
At this point I am unable to respond immediately, but I am tentatively planning on going up as soon as I can break free.
 
We are looking for anyone who has experience to go up ahead of us and get started on the relief efforts as soon as possible.  If you or someone you know can get away, please contact us ASAP.  The harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few! 

If you can help financially with relief efforts, please don't hesitate to contact us as well. 

Thanks for all your prayers and support.

Proclaiming the Lord in all we do,
In season and out of season.

Lord Bless,
Curt & Mary Jo Hencye

Longboat Key Storm Relief And Etc!

Email not displaying correctly? Please click View it in your browser. 

Longboat Key Storm Relief And Etc!!

There has been a lot and continues to be a lot going on with Relief Ministries.  Most of you probably didn’t realize that we had over 20 homes damaged by a storm a couple of weeks ago.  We were called into action by the Sarasota County Emergency Management Chief and quickly got busy helping the residents clean up the mess.  You can read the full story by visiting our website by at http://reliefministriesccsarasota.com/LBK_storm_relief.html.
 
We continue to keep the people of Japan in our prayers as they have suffered three large earthquakes in a month and the radiation problems continue to escalate.  We are in contact with Costa Mesa and may join a team from there if the Lord wills.  We will keep you posted.  We also know of others who are ready to go once they get the green light.  Please continue to pray!
 
There is a group of four men from The Bowery driving to visit with us.  They will arrive tonight and stay until Tuesday morning.  Please pray that they would have a great time of rest amidst being ministered to and ministering themselves.
 
This Sunday we will have our first NYC Thanksgiving Bowery Outreach meeting for this coming Thanksgiving.  It will be at our church at 11 AM, out back under the sails.  If you are at all interested in joining our team you must be present for this meeting.  If you have a really good reason why you can’t make the meeting please contact me immediately.  I can’t wait to see what God will do in our lives again this year!
 
The first week in May I will be taking 28 adults and 8thgraders to The Bowery to minister for a week.  Please keep us in your prayers for the last minute preparations as well as that our time there would draw us all closer to God and that in this process He will use us to minister to others, drawing all closer to Him!
 
I have two more trips planned to The Bowery this summer and have room for more team members on both trips.  The first one will be from June 18th-26th.  This will be a maintenance trip.  We will be taking our truck and trailer to NYC and doing a lot of maintenance work around the building.
 
The second trip will be August 1st-8th.  Mary Jo and I will once again be running the kitchen while Clyde has a short vacation away.  We have all of the volunteer quarters open to us and are looking for a team to go with us to do the volunteer work that week at The Bowery.
 
Please contact us if you are interested in going on any of the three trips mentioned above.
 
We also continue our involvement at the Barnabas House here in Sarasota.  I have begun a twice a week Bible study on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.  Please pray for the house, leadership and disciples that God would radically change lives.  Please also pray for us and that the Lord would open the doors that He wants opened and close those He wants closed and that our eyes would be open to His will.

Thanks for all your prayers and support.

Proclaiming the Lord in all we do,
In season and out of season.

Lord Bless,

Sarasota Storm Relief-2

Email not displaying correctly? Please click View it in your browser. 

Sarasota Storm Relief-2

Just a quick note to let you know how things are going.  We left out at 7 this morning and just got home around 8:30.  It was a long day, but nothing unusual!

There were over 20 homes damaged that we know of so far.  The majority of them are mobile homes and there is a lot of metal laying around as well as other debris.  Mostly roof and carport damage with an occasional object through a window.

We responded with some friends from church as well as three guys from the Barnabas House.  Everyone worked very hard and the community and authorities were very appreciative of all the work that was accomplished.  There is still a lot of work to be done.

If you can help out in any way tomorrow, please call me at 915-9560 or Mary Jo at 374-1607.  I will be at our church around 7 AM loading up a few things and plan to be on site at 8 AM.

We could also use some help with lunch for the team and some of the homeowners are without electicity and were eating with us as well.

Thanks for all your prayers and support.

Proclaiming the Lord in all we do,
In season and out of season.

Lord Bless,
