I've never had a hard drive crash......well not until a couple of weeks ago!!
Here are a couple of things I've realized in the process:
1. I "can" go without a computer for longer than a day.
2. It isn't easy to go without a computer for longer than a day.
3. I'm VERY thankful for an offsite back up service my mom recently recommended.

ANYWAY......I'm back online now and wanted to give some updates.

First the Personal Updates:
Thank you so much to all of you who have pr.ayed for and sent cards to my mom. It really means alot to her (and to me). If you didn't see my earlier post, my mom has had a recurrence of breast cancer. She has started going through radiation treatments and is doing great. She has another 4 weeks to go. I am here in Ohio to be with her but plan, Lord-willing to go to Cedar Rapids around the 2nd week of August.
It would mean so much to me if you would add my mother to your prayer list. If you would like to send her a card the info is:
Janet Baker
19371 Knox Lake Rd.
Fredericktown, Ohio 43019

My next prayer request is for one of our very special DRT volunteers. She also has been diagnosed with breast cancer and just had surgery last week. She is now home from the hospital. Her info is:
Shirley Shockey
P.O. Box 211
Lodi, Ohio 44254

Now For DRT News:

Tonight at 7:00 pm Harding's Theatron will be performing at the Central Church of Christ in Cedar Rapids, IA. for the church and community. That will be a special treat after the trauma they have all been through.

****

Thanks to so many wonderful DRT volunteers we have had 223 volunteers so far with another 55 registered for the 1st 2 weeks in August. 692 Flood survivors have been assisted!! PRAISE GOD!!

Look for more pictures starting tomorrow.

Will you see your picture or anyone you know?!? :)
