Being A Volunteer
. . . with no strings attached, opens the door for the purest form of help.
Mike has made our mission clear and simple: If someone asks for help . . . we help! This is not the way it is done in the real world. Usually we try to prioritize, form lists from most needy to least needy, set criteria, analyze motivation, factor in personality, health, gender, race, religion and a host of other issues all in the name of fairness I like to think that we help and by our example, love, the way Jesus would . . . no questions.
Destruction struck Pass Chrisitian at every level from the very rich to the very poor followed by equal 'unconditional' suffering. If we wait for our government to help or the church or the Red Cross, we will be dissapointed. It won't be done the way we think it should be done, it will take too long and by the time it filters down to those in need, hopefully, it will be completed by volunteers! One person told me today that he was so eager to get out of his FEMA trailer and into his real home. . . not for the obvious reasons but so that he could return all the good that was given to him. Helping is contagious! what do you think?

SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE LEARNING SOME NEW WAYS AS WELL AS HELPING OUT SOME VERY NICE PEOPLE WHO APPRECIATE ALL THE HELP YOU ARE GIVING. I MISS YOU BUT AM PROUD OF WHAT YOU ARE CONTRIBUTING.
KEEP WELL, LOVE FROM THE ONE MISSING YOU AT HOME OR IN TEXAS FOR NOW.
The greatest of compliments . . . thanks, Ginny
