On behalf of myself and all of us here at Blessing House, I would like to offer my thoughts and prayers to all of our friends at First Evangelical Lutheran Church in Lorain as they struggle to recover from the devastating fire that destroyed their church building. I was at the service that Pastor Jimmy Masden led in the field across from the church on the Sunday after the fire and was so blessed to witness the faith and courage that was present that morning.
We have worked with Dan Erwine who works with some of the outreach programs at First Lutheran and who does so much in our community for families that need help. He is always willing to do whatever it takes to make sure people get what they need. One of our staff members, Sally, also is a parishioner at the church and very active in the community.
Another Blessing House supporter and a very good friend of mine, Sue Perry is also a member of First Lutheran and very involved in their community programs. Sue volunteers as a nurse at Blessing House who helps with our children and we have always appreciated her cheerful presence at the house.
While we are saddened at this terrible loss, we are encouraged by the strength of so many who believe that God will help them heal and continue to serve and minister to so many who need them.
Sue, Dan and Sally – our thoughts and prayers are with you and your community. God bless all of you.
