Updated Needs List fro Webster's Chapel, Alabama - Saturday, July 30

All,

Here is the latest from Webster's Chapel this morning...

"Darin, WC has been crazy this week and I know you are looking for an updated list. I will give you some suggestions. There are 7 new homes in process which means seven kitchens with no pots and pans, flatwear, dishes, towels, etc. Probably bathrooms with no toothbrush holders, shower curtains, towels, towel racks. Bedrooms without comforters, sheets, pillows. Front porches with no welcome mats. MG"

So, imagine losing everything and then preparing to move into a newly constructed home. I'm sure that they could use whatever you feel led to give.

If you have stuff to donate, give me a shout and I can make arrangements to get it from you or feel free to drop it off on my front porch anytime. 510 Sheldon St., Greendale...the camper is parked in front of the house. As always, thanks and God Bless!!!

REBUILD ALABAMA - July 11, 2011

Finally decided on dates to make a return trip to aid with the rebuilding process in Alabama. The dates are August 10 thru 14 and I am finalizing details with folks from Habitat for Humanity and Christian Missian Service for locations and accomodations.

Right now it sounds like we will be headed to Webster's Chapel, northeast of Birmingham, and crashing on the floor in a church. At least we will be out of the elements and will have access to bathroom & shower facilities. Sleeping bags will be a must. Still working on details for meals while we are there to know whether or not we need to bring a grill along.

If anyone is interested in going to help and "swing some hammers for Jesus" then give me a shout at darinkroger@gmail.com or via phone at 812-584-1306.
