as i'm sure you have heard, yesterday there was an earthquake in central italy. the region of abruzzo, and specifically the town of l'acquila was hit by a 6.3 earthquake.
honestly, i would not have known about this instance except for all the calls and messages i received from family and friends. we are slowly starting to receive information, and the devastation sounds absolutely terrible. please be praying for these people. pray for comfort. for healing. for peace. and ultimately, that it would be found only in Christ.
we have looked into going down and helping out with cleanup. as for now, the city has requested only volunteers that are trained and certified in rescue work. that may change later, but for now we are sending financial help and our prayers. these are two very vital things [as they are the two reasons i am able to be here... financial support and prayer!].
all this to say, thank you for your concern and care for me. we are safe.
please please continue you to pray for those in and around abruzzo.

So glad you were not affected by the earthquake. Praying for God to reveal ways you can minister to the people who were defasted by this horrible act of nature. Miss you bunches.
I have been concern for you and glad that you are safe. Will cont. to pray for you and the town affected by earthquake.
You are constantly in my thoughts and prayers. It's wonderful you and your team are supporting the people impacted by this terrible earthquake. Though we never want hard times, often it is a time of crisis that starts minds questioning, looking for answers, looking for the real purpose/ reason for being, and what comes after this life. May they find that in a personal relationship with Jesus. May God continue to use you in His perfect way and timing to point them toward His truth. I love you!
