Day +21

Derrick fell asleep again, but he will post late tomorrow morning. He had a pretty uneventful day today which is always good. I know some people had some questions regarding donations to the Hope Lodge, so I wanted to quickly try to answer some of those. In an earlier post I accidentally had a typo where I said that someone had taken care of all the donations. What I meant to say was someone took care of the dvd player donations. Derrick went back and fixed it, but most of you probably read it by then. I guess I should proofread :) Anyway, the Hope Lodge provides many things for their guests. Some things they can always use are; dishtowels, paper plates,cups, plastic silverware, paper towels, cascade dishwasher soap, throw blankets, condiments such as ketchup, cooking supplies such as pans, and simple things like Pam cooking spray. Basically the only thing that the Hope Lodge doesn't provide for it's guests is food. I know some of you expressed just writing a check to donate. If you wish you can just make it out to the American Cancer Society and mail it to the address we provided. This money will be put to good use as it can be used for some of the families who have difficulty providing food for themselves. Once again, please do not feel obligated. Derrick and I feel truly blessed to have family and friends like all of you. :) We love you.


Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.
