Disaster Response- Greenwood Indiana



Penny and I were part of a group from PleasantDale Church of the Brethren to travel to Greenwood Indiana to volunteer with home repair from last years floods. We were in Alaska when the floods hit last year and were shocked at the damage and joyful our denomination choose to set up a site. Since last Nov. groups have traveled from all over the nation to show their love to folks in the hardest hit areas.We spent the week in four homes doing major repair and more importantly listening to peoples accounts of that horrific night in June.
Several spiritual events filled this week , they will be posted soon.

Bill & Penny-
You guys are amazing! Too many Christians today are simply talkers- you two are doers! What an example you set for others- especially me and my girls: Melanie, Hannah, and Becca. We are so proud of your choice to let God lead you and your willingness to tell Him "Yes"! We admire you, love you, and are honored to be able to call you brother, sister, uncle and aunt.
Love Always,
The Sam Beer Family
