Off to Gulfport Mississippi

The Lubbers Family, minus Stephanie, is off to Gulfport Mississippi this afternoon. We have a 17+ hour ride down, in two 15 passenger vans (with 25 people from our church), driving straight thru the night tonight and starting work right away Tuesday morning. We're staying at Little Rock Missionary Baptist Church with 100 other people. We'll be doing roofing work and debris cleanup.We'll be home Saturday morning.

Stephanie leaves for Washington Tuesday morning.(Thank you to Micki for an early morning ride to the airport).

We'd appreciate your prayers.

A VERY BLESSED AND MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES!! WE LOVE ALL OF YOU! Al and Karen
