I was looking over the totals that have come in to help our friends beat foreclosure<\/a> this week.<\/p>\n

It’s encouraging to see.<\/p>\n

Folks from 2 different countries, 5 different states, people that have never met my friends, are all pitching in to help in a time of need.<\/p>\n

To help illustrate this, I put together a quick map highlighting the cities represented thus far.<\/p>\n

\nIt’s not easy to admit you have a need. It’s not easy to say you need someone else. We’re independent folks – especially here in our Western society.<\/p>\n

But this map proves to me that there are still many, many people out there that don’t care about your past — and are only interested in helping improve your future.<\/p>\n

The greater the struggle \u00e2\u20ac\u201c the greater the triumph\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6
\nand God is all about making beauty from ashes.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

If you’re interested in helping our friends, you can still donate. With only 5 days in, we’re nearing the $1000 mark. That leaves us a little over a month to raise the remaining $3500 or so.<\/p>\n

Or e-mail me<\/a> for where to mail a donation.<\/p>\n

And a HUGE thanks to all those have pitched in so far!<\/p>\n

We’re all in this together. We GET to<\/a> carry each other.<\/a> And we’ll get by with a little help from our friends…<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
