Coming Up

We have a few jobs to finish up from the wind storm back in December and a new one that was brought to our attention this week. We will get these on the calendar as soon as we finish in Boulder and the weather is cooperative.

We are continuing to work coordination of fire mitigation activities in our local area starting in May. We have three meetings coming up with churches and fire officials in the works for this effort.

Prayer Requests / Praises

We appreciate everyone who prays with us for this ministry and the opportunities to share the good news of Jesus.

Please pray for:

1. The volunteers as they continue to deal with the isolation resulting from the COVID outbreak.
2. The volunteers as they engage with ministry opportunities, that they would have opportunities to share the good news of Jesus.
3. Strength and endurance to continue to work in the cold and snow for the Marshall fire cleanup.

Praise God for:

1. Provision of equipment that we are already able to use serving.
2. Keeping all of the volunteers safe as they continue to serve.
3. Travel mercies going to and from disaster sites.
4. HIS great grace, mercy, and provision.
