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.
