I just got back from site and have seen a few kids but we had an amazing thing happen at our site today. First some background info, yesterday we worked at a site called open hands, a non-profit dedicated to building wheelchair ramps for people who are ultimately trapped in their houses. The guy in charge of this place is named Ken and is not a believer but naturally accepts help from anyone who is willing. So we spent the day yesterday cleaning up the area where his office is mowing the lawn pulling weeds, trimming bushes, yard work. He told us yesterday that he had to make phone calls to tell people he can't build them ramps because there was no funding for them. He needed a lot of money and he knew we were believers so he asked if we would pray for him, and we did, we layed hands on him and prayed.
We got back to the site today and were welcomed by a smiling Ken. He told us that he got a letter today from the Governor (maybe Senator, I don't remember which)saying that there is some money from the government stimulus package that just came in, and you are going to get 250,000 dollars of it. A non-believer told me today that he now believes in the power of prayer. Ken is a long way from knowing Christ as his Lord and Savior but God did an amazing work in a man's life today who helps a lot of people. It was amazing!
