To the editor:
For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord,  plans to prosper you and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.  Jeremiah 29:11

Our family certainly didn’t know the plan God had for us on June 25, but we have seen His hand in so many details since that day.

We have been blessed by so many people sharing so many kindnesses with us since our house caught fire. For those who were there, on the scene that day, to those who have provided for us and helped us in any way since then, we are truly grateful.  Words cannot express how much we appreciate each person who has said a prayer, given us a hug or a kind word, fed us, clothed us, cared for our pets, shared their home with us, or supported us financially. All of you have been a blessing to us and your generosity has humbled us.

We are blessed to live in such a wonderful community where people care about one another and help when they see a need. We will try to never miss an opportunity to pay forward the kindnesses we have been shown.
