In late January, Moscow was hit with a big snow and ice storm. There was so much precipitation that came down that as you can see from the pictures above, it created quite a mess around town. Some branches were so big that it knocked out power in places and blocked some streets. After about a month, there was still so much debris along the roads and in peoples yards that our church decided to jump in and help with the clean up. So last Saturday about 20 of our people got together and for two hours we drove around town and hauled away as many limbs and branches as possible. We hit 20+ houses and hauled 12+ loads of debris to the dump. There was so many limbs on the ground, that we could have worked all day and still had more to do, but every house we helped out appreciated it and some even offered money for our work. I am so proud of our people, they had great attitudes, worked hard, got dirty, and gave God all the glory.
When we decided on a name for our church almost a year ago, we decided to add the word Community and that was important because we want the Palouse to know that we want to support, care, and love our community as God has loved us!! So these kind of events are important to us because we can show Moscow and the surrounding cities that we are serious about being a COMMUNITY church!! I wanted to share this with you because some of you are praying for us, some of you are financially supporting us, or some of you are just interested in how its going up here. So here is just one more thing to let you know what were up to and I also want to thank all of you who are joining with us in prayer and supporting us. Your prayer and support is working and Gods name is going out!! So thank you and Praise God!! Until next time!!
