Default Prayers for bluesea112

I want to request prayers and supprot on the behalf of charles and mindy. Last night their house caught fire and burned down. They lost everything but the guns and some clothes (thank the good lord for that at least). I have yet to speak to charles this morning. I sure he and mindy both are exhausted. Once he calls me and i talk with him awhile ill fill everyone in.

Prayer sent. Tell him and Mindy that we are thinking of them. If there is anything we can do, let us know.

Yes Charles and Mindy are personal friends of mine. I first met Charles thru this forum back in '09 at our very first TFF TX meet. We have met every year at his campground since. Charles has become one of my closest friends over the last couple years. I still have yet to get ahold of him. I will post an update as soon as I hear back from him.

I figure he just probably needs a little time to process what has happened. Im worried about him and mind. Shes been posting on FB with her phone and He text me at 4 am this morning to let me know what happened so I know they are still alive at least.

OK, Charles just called me. He said they are fine, they are going thru the house seeing what is salvageable. The only room that didnt burn was the one the guns and most of their clothes were in. He said hed get on later and give an update personally and he says thanks for all the prayers. It means alot.

Praise the lord for that! They really are good folk. Charles would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. The world is a blessed place with them in it.
