Things we found in socks

Vance and Sharon finished attaching a lot of pairs of socks today.  We only have four more pallets to go.  So far, William Walker, who worked with us one day, found a $1.00 bill in a sock, Sharon found a packet of carrot seeds, and Vance found a $5.00 bill.  We gave the money to Dr. Johnny Strickland for Network of Promise, Inc. who donated all these things to help pay for some of his transportation costs in getting all the things to the warehouse.  A special thanks to Vance, Sharon, and William for their hard work.

 

Orton Queen, who works closely with us, gave me fourteen brand new T-shirts today he recently purchased from Cypress Gardens for me to give to children overseas.  Orton, thank you so much.

 

Dr. Strickland also gave us two pallets of paper products today; toilet paper, paper towels, Kleenex, and feminine products.  Thank you so much Dr. Strickland and Network of Promise, Inc.

Dennison Attacher Gun

Ah Ha, you are asking, What is a Dennison Attacher Gun?  Good question.  Remember I told you a man phoned me and asked if I wanted pallets of toilet paper and MREs?  The man's name is Dr. Johnny Strickland.  He is the President of Network of Promise and works closely with the Pen Fla Men's Ministry.  Yesterday he gave us three pallets of ladies shoes, four pallets of children's socks, and a pallet of little girl's panties.  When we opened the boxes of socks, we discovered that the socks were folded together in pairs.  But I knew that when those socks reached their destination, the socks would be poured out on tables and scattered to the winds.  So we started folding the pairs of socks together like you do in your dresser drawer.  Today, Sharon, Vance's wife said, When these socks get overseas, people will open each pair so they can see what size they are and we will still be faced with socks scattered everywhere.  She suggested we purchase a Dennison Attacher Gun, a little plastic pistol that attaches items with a little piece of plastic wire, like when you buy clothes, the stickers have those little plastic wires.  So we purchased two Dennison Attacher Guns today and 20,000 attachers.  We are putting 300 pairs of socks in each box and today barely made a dent in the pallets of socks.  But at least the socks will stay together.  Glory!  Thank you Dr. Johnny Strickland and Network of Promise, Inc. for all these wonderful things to send overseas.

Vehicle Donated

I received a phone call Sunday from one of my faithful monthly supporters who said he would like to donate his minivan to Investing in Futures, Inc. to bless Gerry and me.  I was thrilled.  Monday morning he presented the vehicle to me and I have had a great time driving this blessing.  Glory!  God is good!

Ready to Eat Meals

I have just been given 12 pallets of Meals-Ready-to-Eat (MRE) which are normally given out to hurricane victims.  Each meal provides the protein needed for one person for the entire day.  There are 570 meals on each pallet which means the Lord has provided meals for 6,840 people.  Six of the pallets will be sent to the school children in El Salvador and six of the pallets will be sent to the school children in The Gambia, Africa.  Glory!
