What a great day and opportunity to help someone in need. Our Youth and Families Pastor Mike Lehew came across a code enforcement officer in town that contacted us out of the blue and asked if we would be willing to help clean up an elderly couples yard. We said absolutely! When we got there it was in really bad shape. overgrown with weeds, brush, car parts, broken down limbs from big trees, cars, a boat, you name it, it was probably on the property. The everyone who helped did an excellent job, worked hard and did not complain.     We completely filled the largest industrial trash container I have ever seen. They could probably use 2 more container s full of debris before the entire yard is cleaned. 

It was a blessing to us that we could help and also to the couple who are elderly and the man is taking care of his wife who has cancer. What do I have to complain about? This opportunity today was a reminder to me that we need to help each other. When we see a need, if we can help, we need to rally the troops and jump in to help. Thank you team for your help and time as you gave of your time and resources to make this possible. You all did a fantastic job!
