Saddness in our Family

It's a sad night. We were all set for Rebuilding Together tomorrow morning, but we just found out Mrs. Henderlite, the sweet lady whose house we were going to work on, has died. She was elderly, and although we really did not know much about her, we knew that she needed our help. We were just going to do some weeding and tree trimming for her, simple tasks that had become too overwhelming for her to do on her own. It makes us realize how important it is to check on our neighbors, and help out even in simple ways. We will still participate in Rebuilding Together tomorrow....because there is always someone who needs us!

to do everything

but to do something."
