Missions with Don & Rosemary

This top picture is a picture of much destruction to the Peace River Church of Christ Building in Punta Gorda, Fla. This destruction took place during "Charlie" nearly two years ago. The congregation is planning to rebuild and is continuing to meet in a trailer on the property. The Churches of Christ Disaster Response Team volunteers were a tremendous help to people during this disaster. We helped with roofing, cleaning out houses , cooking and feeding as well as comforting people.
The bottom picture is such and encouraging picture to me. These are just a few of the many, many college students who volunteered to help and help they did. These student packed dinner take out trays of food for people who had suffered so much from the flooding of the hurricane. As we give out these food trays it is always our purpose to give them a piece of literature concerning Christ and the Church. We've really got some good kids and I am so proud of them.
From the news today, we can see that hurricane season is really on us. Please know that there is a place for you with the Church of Christ Disaster Response Team. When we set up our portable kitchens to feed people this year, we are also planning to set up tables and chairs so people can sit and eat. We need people that will sit down with them and listen to them and help them know that Jesus cares and His people care also. It can be a real opportunity to lead them to Christ.
