...4 college girls at the 24/7 Karaoke diner at 2 a.m.

You know the breeze that wasn't there last week.
Well , it wasn't there tonight either.
No breeze, nowhere. Warm and still.

WAYNE / STEVE / BLAKE / MICHAEL / ALYSSA / ELLEN / CECELIA / KATIE / LAURA / BRIEN / TWIG / TERESA / ANNA / SEAN / PEYSON / MERRITT / J.BOGGS / ALLISON / PRUDEN / CRAIG / and me were hard at it tonight.

Today was the first day back for NH County schools, so it didn't surprise me that there was not the same large number helping tonight that there has been for the past several weeks. It was good though, because the ones that came were kept hopping all night and that's fun.

We had such a positive response to Fried Bologna a couple of weeks ago, we did it again, along with Peanut Butter/Banana and PB&J sandwiches. It was a nice light meal on a warm night.

PEANUT BUTTER/BANANA
PB&J
CHIPS
FRUIT
DESSERT
SWEET TEA/WATER

We also gave them individually wrapped Turkey Wraps and a pack of sugar free cookies to take with them for lunch tomorrow.
And last but not least, we had freeze pops for anyone who wanted one. Somebody gave them to me a long time ago and for the life of me I couldn't remember to bring them out after the meal. Finally remembered.

I don't do a good enough job letting people know who good God is to us. I don't do a good enough job here to y'all, or to the folks helping on Tuesday night. I'm going to try and do better.

I walked in the kitchen tonight and there was 2 large packs of paper plates and 2 large packs of cups on the table. I don't know who brought them but we needed them.

Somebody called me last week and said they would like to give us three Boston Butts to use for feeding. I'll go pick them up Saturday, already cooked and ready to go.
3 Boston Butts? NICE. Can you say "BBQ sandwiches." Yeah, I thought you could.

Somebody called me Sunday and told me Harris Teeter had a special that let you buy a bundle of items needed to cook hamburgers for only $6 and they had bought one for us.

God has never failed us and He never will. He has proven himself faithful in this. I never worry that we'll have something to serve each week. God provides.

Sean leaves this week to go back to school. He's a junior at Fairfield University in Connecticut. He's on the basketball team so keep an eye out for them and him on ESPN and wherever else you get your sports.

There's a raccoon that keeps showing up every week on the roof of the Mercy House while we're serving food. I'm pretty sure he's not there to see me, so I ignore him, but the others get pretty hyper about it.

Twig's son Sprig (Justin) is getting ready to enlist in the Air Force and pretty much waiting on them so he can go. Keep him and Twig in your prayers.
