Pray & Help


How do you describe in words an ache that goes so deep? What words can soothe a devastating loss? My heart hurts for them. I've been racking my brain... what can I do for them? I wanted to share this with my blog readers & lurkers. Collectively, we (that means YOU and YOU and YOU and you too!) can really reach out and help this situation. Some of you may know them & other may just want to help out of Christian Charity.

Matt & I heard news today of our good friends, Brian & Shannon Bishop. I don't know details but they had a house fire over the weekend... and it sounded like they lost everything.

Look into the eyes of these little girls, Olivia & Breana. What can you do to help them have a Merry Christmas? In a situation like this, even ONE DOLLAR or FIVE DOLLARS can help make a difference.. even just a card. It doesn't matter if you know them or not. I think that through the outreaching arms of the body of Christ - they will feel God's love & care for them.

I am sure they will receive mail sent to their address... although there is also an address for their church - but I don't have it. If anyone has that - feel free to post it as a comment.

Thank you for sharing this tragedy. Shannon and I dont get much opportunity to talk anymore, but we are still good friends and I would be a horrible person not to help in this situation.

Thanks for posting the address. I too have been wondering what I can do for them. Such a tragedy.
