Recently parts of Okahoma burned; over 200 houses becoming ash. In many cases families had no time to gather belongings.

This past Saturday two business owners in our town were talking about the families burned out, and decided to do something. They called all the churches in town, and asked that it be announced Sunday morning that clothing, furniture, bedding, etc. be brought to their businesses by Wednesday afternoon. They would donate the use of two trailers to haul the goods to the worst hit part of the state.

This morning I took some bags of clothing and bedding my wife and I were donating downtown. Between the two sites, our town has collected quite a pile of stuff on short notice.

Personal initiative, community spirit, and not a government dime or bureacrat. God bless America.
