Pray for Alabama

Hey y'all,

This is going to be a post of links.  It is the only way I know how to share these pictures.  I hope and pray that you will take the time to look at all of these pictures.  These images were taken by a friend of mine.  Her family lives on this road and they were affected by the tornado.  This is in Ashville, approximately 30 minutes from our house.  I am hoping that these images will remind you to pray for Alabama and the relief efforts that are and will be ongoing.

** Thanks to Elizabeth for alerting me to the fact that y'all weren't able to follow the links.  I am trying the only other way I know how.  Click "Tornado Pictures" below.  It will take you to all of my pictures on Facebook. You will need to look for the section of "photos of me."  The first 17 pictures in that section are the pictures to look through.  I hope this works!!

If you would like to do more than pray, please consider making a donation of some kind.  The people here have been amazing.  I heard today that Tuscaloosa has received so many donations that they are now redistributing supplies to other areas that were hit.  It's amazing to see people set up and help each other.  Strangers are helping strangers and Christians are having and taking the opportunity to be the Body of Christ.

I know that our church has teamed up with Samaritan's Purse to aid in relief.  If you would like to donate monetarily, you can give through their website.  Here is a link: http://www.samaritanspurse.org/index.php/articles/responding_to_deadly_tornadoes/
You can also send a check directly to our church, Briarwood.  Here is a link to information with our church: http://www.briarwood.org/templates/System/details.asp?id=37045&PID=862087
One last way, if you would like to have me shop for specific needs, I can and will get it into the hands of people that need it.  I have a number of contacts with whom I pass on supplies.  Just email or call me and we can work something out.

Thank you for your prayers, I know they are coveted by many.  As you are praying, please pray that I would have opportunities to serve with Molly and Colin and that God would use us to touch and change lives for Him.

Until next time...
