ALABAMA, FLORIDA, GULF COAST

As I sit here thinking of all the things I want to tell you, my mind is racing. There are so many people out there desperate for help. I want to be there with them, holding them, telling them of GOD'S LOVE for them.....I will be there and I will do all of those things along with many of you just as we've done many times before......But first let me give you an update of what is happening with the DRT efforts in several areas around the country.

On a personal note: Our 2 yr. old grandson (Hunter) will be having surgery Monday, March 12. Please keep him in your prayers. Thanks! Laura
