The blessing of a bed...

Last night we met a young couple in Memphis to give them a list of resources and to put a little gas in their car. They have been living in their car for several weeks, he lost his job, then their home, and has been paying the car payment so they have somewhere to live. They finally found a boarding house that they could afford and the bed has bed bugs and ticks...so they are sleeping in the car... in the driveway...he told me he can't remember the last time he slept straight more than an hour. Today we are on a mission to get them a bed! If you would like to help please make a donation on our webpage (any amount will help!) so we can purchase a bed, sheets, and pillows so they can rest their weary heads tonight and sleep!

 

 
Also, she is 4 months pregnant, the gas we purchased was for her to make her OB appointment this morning. If you can, please help with a donation at:
 
ALL DONATIONS RECEIVED TODAY WILL GO TO THIS COUPLE.  And if you can't help financially, even more importantly please keep them in your prayers, they are a sweet young couple getting off to a very rough start. Thank you and remember to count your blessings today, I was reminded by this couple that our blessings are so plentiful!!! 
 

Matthew 11:28
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
