As I said in another post, both my daughter and husband helped with tornado clean-up after an E5 tornado hit Parkersburg, Iowa a couple of years ago. They both learned a lot from the 4 days they spent there. The biggest lesson being that life is never for certain and that things are just things and can be taken away in an instant.
Our church youth group does a mission trip each year. This year they were planning on going one place but the details never seemed to work out for them. Instead, in a matter of a couple of weeks things fell into place for them to go to north east Alabama area to help with tornado clean-up. This will be an eye opening experience for the youth and adults involved in this trip. They will be leaving Sunday, June 5 and coming back on June 11.
When my daughter heard this week that they were going to Alabama, she stated to us, "I knew when I saw the news coverage of the tornado damage in Alabama that that is where God was going to send us." She was right. Please keep them in your prayers as they travel next week and as they clear debris. It will touch their lives forever. I know it did Mary the first time around.
