West Virginia - Monday

We had a great breakfast this morning, then we headed to downtown Marlinton, where we gave away LOTS of clothing, toys, and bedding. After unloading the truck, we took the school supplies to the Marlinton Elementary School and the staff was very appreciative. Some of us then drove to Lewisburg to return the rental truck and to buy food for the giveaway on Wednesday. The clothing giveaway went on until 4 pm. We made many bags of food for Wednesday. Another group will do the clothing giveaway tomorrow, while some of our folks visit shut-ins and do home repairs. Eight of us will be ministering at the Greenbriar Birthing Center tomorrow, then we will all go to Denmar Correctional Facility tomorrow night for worship.

We had a good day - enjoyed great fellowship with one another, made some new friends, visited with some old friends, shared the love of Jesus with over 100 people, and (of course) ate some very good food. I plan to post more information here each day and will be posting some photos soon.

Continue to pray for us as we minister here. Today the weather was gorgeous. Tomorrow may bring some rain, and each day promises to get cooler. Right now it is pretty cold as I prepare for some rest.
