Volunteering for the mudslide victims

My sister, brother, niece and sister-in-law spent several hours today volunteering at the the distribution center for the victims of the horrific mudslide of this region. We sorted clothes, bagged and labeled them, and unloaded incoming trucks. They never stopped, for the entire time we were there; one after the other, coming from everywhere around, from little cars bringing a few bottles of water and two bags of clothes to rented buses and old trucks bringing huge amounts of everything needed. I don´t think there is a person here who hasn't donated something yet. The army is all around helping at every level and they were loading all terrain trucks to take the goods to the victims. Please continue praying as is is truly a tearful time here.
