Hell-o all:

Just sitting here this morning wondering.?
Wondering what we can better do to help these men and women.

First let me share with you about Darryl. He came to us from the North Carolina Dept. of Corrections. Darryl has accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. We were able to baptize Darryl this last Monday. He went to court this last week and the Dist. Attorney dropped his case. Darryl was also able to see his twin boys and take them to lunch. He had not seen them in a long period of time. God is awesome!

Now here is what I need. Ok take your hands off your wallets. :
We are seeing more and more need to help people find employment.
There are a number of men and women that we work with that are looking for jobs. You can help in a number of ways. 1. If you come across a job opening let me know and we can give that info to the right person. 2. If you have work that needs to be done call us and let me know. Painting, remodeling, clean up, yard and garage or house. Let me know. We have the capability to supervise those folks who would be working on your projects. We can do your project for a lesser amt. than a contractor can do the work. Saving you money and helping a family.

Some of the talents we have on hand at this time are:
Painter's roofers, cement workers, construction workers, plumbers, electrical people and heating and air people. As you can see we have a pretty good pool to draw people from.

One of the things we can know is that people who have their mind on how they are going to pay the next utility bill, or where are we going to live, or where is my next meal coming from have a tendency to make wrong choices on how to handle situations.

I know we can feed people all the time but if we help them learn to catch fish then they can feed themselves.

At RH we have about 3 acres of land that we can grow vegetables on. We need to make arrangements to clean the debris off the land. Then we can work the ground and plant crops. This would help guys learn the value of razing crops and selling the produce.

These are just some thoughts and ideas. I would love to hear any idea you have.
All of us pulling together and praying should be able to come up with creative ideas to help these men and women find work.

I want to say Thank You to all of you who support RH.
As the year comes to an end I would like to ask you to consider giving to RH a year end contribution. The donations you make are used to help the men of the house. Remember all year end donations have to be post marked by the end of 2009.

Again Thank You for all you do.
