The house is in! And together! It is truly amazing how they can do that, and get it so, so close, exactly in the right place. Now they are attaching the garage. It won't be a garage long, as we need the space for the resident director to stay, so we will convert it to a room.
We feel God's guidance and care in this endeavor, and while every step of the way brings its problems and new challenges, we can see the shelter--the Billie Hamby Memorial Shelter--closer and more a reality.
Tomorrow they will try to finish attaching the garage. Then, hopefully on Friday they will move the store building in.
In the meantime, we still have all sorts of things for sale at My Friend's House. Today someone brought a lace bedspread and matching drapes--ivory colored and a nice, heavy fabric. And we still have lots of computers, scanners, mice, and a new batch of large women's clothing. So if you are in these parts, come by 212 West Bowie in Marshall, and help us finish the shelter by buying things you might need at very reasonable prices. And I surely would like to not move all those books.
