This year we have chosen a family consisting of a mother and 4 children. The mother was physically and emotionally abused by her second husband (her first husband dieed in an auto accident.) She finally left him and took the family to a women's shelter. Her husband found out where they were and moved nearby. They then left the shelter and lived at different camp grounds, in their van, for a month before the mother let her sister know their situation. The family then moved in with the mother's sister, where they stayed for several months. The moether recently moved into their own home in Bluffton and she has found a job. She is trying to start a new life for her and her children (who were also abused, mainly emotionally.) We could make an amazing impact on this family this year.
We are collecting money NOW! After collecting today, we are still over $400 short of how much money we collected last year!! Remember that we are not doing a regular Christmas exchange this year for each other, so keep that in mind when you make your donation. This is a great way for our family to show another family God's love!!
Please send money to 13835 Hamilton Meadows Lane, Ft. Wayne, IN. 46814. If you are writing a check, please make it out to me. Thanks!! We will keep you posted!
You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them. ~Desmond Tutu

Finally Sun in Minnesota
Had a beautiful day outside yesterday. We have had 21 days of rain in Oct. , 3 days of some sun and the rest dark and damp. Deer hunting begins Sat. for 9 days. Hope they get some of them around here so we dont have so much trouble with gardens and flowers.
Sister, Lois, Brothers, Kent and Garry: is it O.K. if a sister from Mn. comes to visit you over Thanksgiving? Friends from church are going to Va. and they insist that I go with them. We leave Nov.l8 arr. on Thurs.19 I hope that is O.K. I will call you tomorrow.
Steves puppy is doing good. He obeys. I think he will be a good one. N.J.
