When is a door more than a door?

5/12/2020

When is a door more than a door? It's more than a door when it provides security and safety. It's more than a door when it demonstrates care and love. These COVID-19 days seem to bring out the best in people, both as a giver and as a receiver. Ralph Robinson is one of those compassionate givers - Cynthia S. is the receiver.

"You restored my faith in God and His goodness". This is a common comment from the 100+ men and women who we reach each year. They are so grateful and we are, too. We simply point them the great Giver of all good gifts.

Your generosity enables us to restore hope through the simple act of replacing a door, or a window, or repairing a roof leak. These repairs are more than repairs; they are the openings to new dignity and hope for the future.

Thanks for enabling new doors,

We're Standing on a Firm Foundation

Dear friend,
Here is the underside of a deck we installed for a handicapped homeowner. If you look closely the post goes into a bracket and the bracket sits on a concrete paver. Phil, our Project Manager, explained that it needs a firm foundation to hold it in position. I thought of the hymn How Firm a Foundation which reminds me to "be not afraid" because we stand on His excellent Word.

That's what we're doing these days - standing on the God's word and trusting Him to place us in the right place at the right time. We are confident that we will soon be doing more repairs and using our great volunteers - big plans for this summer!

Back to the home. Here is the finished product, a strong and stable ramp that enables the homeowner to safely exit and enter her home. Warmer, safer, drier, and healthier - all of these help us bring hope and comfort to those in need.

God's Word and His people give us a firm foundation to serve.

Thanks,

If you think about it....
Did you know that the CARES Act allows you
to contribute $300 as a separate deduction even if you don't itemize?
It could be a great way to bless a non-profit.
