It's all the same God

I am amazed at how all of the churches and citizens in Arlington have pulled together to help the survivors. The donations are pooring in from everywhere and people are standing in line at the churches housing the survivors to sign-up to volunteer. My husband put fliers out in our neighborhood saying he was going to come to houses with his 18 foot trailer and take anything people wanted to donate. From two streets and three cul-de-sacs he made two trailer trips.

The mall here invited all children and mother survivers to free ice skating, food and movies.

It is also interesting to note that none of the Catholic churches in Arlington are hosting families. We as members are volunteering at other churches. I wonder if that stems from all of the recent lawsuits? It is wonderful to see so many people giving of themselves. I have forgotten there are so many good people in our world.

I'm sure we could all chip in and create quite a list of the people and organizations that are doing little or nothing for the relief effort. But ya know what?

a) it detracts from time we could spend in positive ways
b) it accomplishes nothing
c) there probably wouldn't be too many surprises, and
d) I really don't care. :bang:

(not picking on you, Karen - great story about the trailer. Keep it up! :yipee: )
