•      Praying about and working toward going on a mission trip to New Orleans which is with a rebuild team that has been going down since Katrina with Kansas/Nebraska S. Baptist.  I went to disaster training with the feeding unit Saturday and heard about the opportunity.  I started praying and was able to cover my shifts at work so I can go this week in  April.  Many things need to be done between the time so xanga will not a focus of mine for a few weeks. Yet, I can't help myself when things slow down for a few minutes to peak in. Still praying for you all. 

  
  

       God is working and allowed me to be able to stay on the Disaster team despite some changes in life. They were not about to let me go due to I work too hard and they do value what I am to the team. It was good to hear those words. I was ready Saturday when I updated the leader about some changes for him to tell me I may not be able to be on the team.  I'm in the process of changing my church membership which could have affected the position. After the five weeks in 2005 in Biloxi, they do not want to let me go. Fortunately, the mobile kitchen has not been called out again since. Yet, we still train to keep up on skills. Another season of storms are here as the group stands ready for response to share God's love in action and Word. This rebuild team has been active with construction since the feeding unit has left. Construction, especially electrical work, is not my strength. The only electrical work I do is through ekg at work on patients.

  
  

      Oh, last shift on....last call.......a patient went down while at work... 911 called.....we were able to shock him.....pulse back...pt. a bit combative....pulse gone.........shock again.... pulse back........pt. scared and a bit combative.....release to er.......went to cath lab due to having a big heart attack........praying.......tonight as I go to work, I may be able to find an update.    I guess I do use electricity but it is not for building construction. Of course we are doing a lot more to this man than just shocking him.

  
  

       There are many things with a relationship with Jesus Christ than just going to church. I pray we are all faithful in do what we are to do!
