By The Grace of God We Go

On Saturday, May 31st, our afternoon was coming to a close and we settled in for a quiet evening at home. We were totally unprepared for what was about to transpire.

At approximately 7:50 PM a small explosion in our garage was about to turn our world upside down. My husband Tim heard the explosion and went to see what happened. Upon opening the door to the garage, he saw fire, and ordered us all out the house.  Within what seemed like only a few minutes, the whole garage was engulfed in flames.

With the nearest hydrant almost a 1/2 mile away, local firefighters were forced to truck in water from all over the area. With a fast spreading fire there was not much we could do. Three hours later, the fire was out and our home was completely destroyed. You can see what one of our local stations reported by clicking here.

We are committed to keeping our scheduled June 28th WOW Advance. Although, 90% of all the paperwork and conference information was destroyed in the fire, we know that with your prayers and God's gracious love, we will be able to not only host this Advance, but bring the women to an overflowing love for Jesus.

We know God will provide us with the means to rebuild. He will take care of us, He promises us that.  We are “bestowed a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.” (Isaiah 61:3) And while He is doing His part, we will continue to do our part.  Being about His business.

In His Arms,

Deborah
