I realize that I have not posted in a couple of days. Part of the reason is that I have been doing a lot of administrative tasks that I am not sure are all that exciting to people on the outside. It's been fun for me because it has given me a different perspective on the 
work of relief. I have been writing thank you notes galore and working on organizing some information for the missions pastor. I also am one of the go to people when folks come in needing some assistance. Today, I got some information on bus schedules to Houston for an evacuee and helped another evacuee get some clothing from the donations that we have received.I also wanted to share these pictures with you. I think I have told you about Dodi who is a woman who flew down from Washington, North Carolina, who is a youth director at the FPC there. Anyway, she has been down at the River Center shelter everyday and has befriended many evacuees. She has gotten to know one family (the one in the pictures) in particular and to make a long story short (that you can read on her blog at http://dodiinbr.blogspot.com) her church is adopting this family. A church member has a house that they can live in and someone is going to pay their utilities for a while and they are sending down some members of the church in the church van to get them. It's quite an amazing thing! God has been good to provide for this family. Please pray for the Reddick family and their adjustment to North Carolina and for God to open their heart to the people who are wanting to help them.
