"Ask for Help, and give Help"
Pastor Bill White tells you two stories, real stories, one
where a man comes to him and says "You don't remember, me sir but you
saved me from drowning as a small boy." Bill recalls this small boys
incident and says to us. "I waded in and just told him to stand up. There
was only 3 1/2 feet of water" . The second story is much later for it
tells of him as a golfer as avid as he has been part of the Oregon Duck Foot Ball
Club for 48 years.
"I was a top this hill next to this sand deep trap, and
as I swung a big gust of wind came and I lost my balance missing the ball and
fell into the sand trap. I was stuck, really stuck, and I yelled help until my
buddies with a lot of laughter came and pulled me out.
We are pretty humble people at Hope Community, most of us
H/C, broken or just plain seen some years, we keep the Pre-School which keeps the church going by all doing our part, I mean really
our part, youth running the streets handing out flyers, many members have spent
days upon days there over the 13 months I have been on the team, buying,
cleaning, painting, gardening, planting all the flowers, making it cool to be a
kid, gatherings, church yard/bake sales, getting ready for State inspection of
Pre-School which we passed well costing 1100$.
I closing Bill said we need 700$ by Wednesday, I have sold
everything I can.
Last year we needed help so Jeff and I nominated Bill to Win
the Sun Auto-Motive Van and we did. I had stood up in our little church and
said "We are going to win the van." with conviction of fact.
Jeff asked me "Was that some premonition of mine. "because
I can get out there."
I said "No."
"I daresay a prophecy?" He asked
"No." I replied turned and looked up because Jeff
is over 7 feet and even in the ride I had to look up.
"Just, Faith" I said
