Greetings Church,
We have a need for some volunteers this weekend for some flood relief efforts. Also, I have some flood-related information I'd like to share with you.
Help Needed at 137 Plantation Court in River Planation, Bellevue, Tomorrow
The Bowens need help at their condo tomorrow doing clean up work. Some of this will be taking out trash, some of it will be cleaning. If you can, please bring cleaning supplies and trash bags. Gwyn will be there at 9 am, so please come any time from then on throughout the morning. Thank you.
Help Needed to Move a Refrigerator
The Trainers, who’s basement flooded, have a refrigerator down there that needs to go out to the curb. It will take a couple of strong folks and a hand truck. If you are willing to help, please call Charlotte at 945-0663 or e-mail trainerc@comcast.net.
Flood Dinner This Tuesday
Being flooded can be a lonely and scary experience. However, we are not alone. If you were affected by the recent floods, or if you would like to be present for those who were, we invite you to an old-fashioned covered dish dinner this Tuesday night at 6:30 pm downstairs. We will have a time of prayer, followed by a meal together. It is a time of fellowship, and a venue to catch up and informally share stories. Bring food to share; drinks, salad and bread provided.
Flood Relief Giving
You can give to the Flood Relief Fund by giving a check to Redeemer, MEMO to “Flood Relief.” Every penny will get to victims in our congregation. If you know a family personally, consider giving a gift card for a grocery store, etc. directly them. The church can not accept donations directed toward particular individuals.
A Thank You from the Coopers
We put out a call to help the Coopers this week, and some of you responded. Here is a thank you note from Reed and Nancy:
What a wonderful body of Christ we have and are privileged to be part of. (Forgive me Mother for ending a sentence with a preposition) This morning I called for help moving some things to storage and this afternoon I had three trucks, three strong willing men for Redeemer and to Saints from Cross Point Church , who cleared out the down stairs wood pieces and boxes in record speed. Patsy and a sweet young girl from Cross Point Church helped me pack up dishes and glasses from the kitchen cupboards and put them in boxes for the storage area. God Blessed us again and we are so gratefully for each and everyone of you. Love to all Nancy and Reed
