The community of Poway is getting back to normal. Most of the people at our shelter were gone by the time we arrived at 5:30 a.m. this morning. Today we spent the early part of the day cleaning and saying good bye to our friends in Poway. We develop a bond with the LDV's everytime we enter a community andwwork at a shelter. Sheila the tireless worker, whose kitchen we used in the shelter was a great volunteer with a lot of heart. Her boy friend has cancer and is undergoing chemo, pray for him when you can spare the time. Greg, Crystal, and June from the City of Poway were great to work with. Greg and his family were displaced for three days and finally found out their house was OK. Belinda also with the city was great to work with. All in all the City of Poway people were great to work with. Their outpouring of love and service was overwhelming. One day we had over 300 volunteers while only having 120 shelter residents. Right now I am working with our own Wayne Smith. Wayne got me and nine other people a job working with HQ this afternoon. Wayne is a great asset, today he wore his Team Red T-shirt.
We are going to try to go to Ramona, CA to check out the need for a response. We are going to meet with Kevin Wise and attempt to come up with a way to honor God in this community. Pray for us as we prepare to bring the message through hands on service. I am worn out and need to get some rest.
I miss my wife, my son and all my brothers and sisters in Christ. I am praying for all of you.
Buddy
