Bad News
Apr 26, 2007
I am sad to say that we have had a housefire and lost everything.  I am sitting at a computer in the lobby of the hotel where the Red Cross has put us up til Monday check out time.  We are needing to get a rental somewhere and do not know if we will in time.  Please pray for us and if you have any encouragement I would love to hear it.  The kids and I were home and we still have some of the animals.  We lost the bunny and still cannot find 4 kitties.  Ozzie my predator cat is singed pretty well and we are attempting to nurse him back to health.  I spent some time in the hospital from my injuries and am on the mend.  Hubby had the week off with pay from his job and so worked for me so I could keep my job.  Lost my purse and so now have to get the birth certificate for all of us, social security cards as well and then my license redone.  Wish I had someone to hold my hand sometimes.  I thought you should know so that my absence is explained.  I did click to donate today and then posted this announcement.  I hope none of you have to ever experience this.  I thank you for being my friends.  I appreciate you very much.  I hope to keep you updated if you are interested and be a busy member here soon.  Wish my luck, prayers are welcome.  Hope you can have a good finish to your week!!!

New Search with charities attached
Dec 10, 2006

Found this through another friend and thought the Care2 community would love to use this...donation through activity seems to be our thing here!!!

I just found out that Google, Yahoo and Microsoft search results are powering the search results of a new website called GoodTree that gives money to charity when you use it.

I thought you'd love it, just click the link below:
http://www.goodtree.com/invites/accept?referrer_id=2366221&v=1&f=0

Let me know what you think!

A Christian Pyppy
Jun 2, 2006

A Christian Puppy

A Baptist couple decide that they want to get a dog. As they are walking down the street in town, they notice that a sign in the pet shop is advertising "Christian Puppies." Their interest piqued, they go inside.

"How do you know they're Christian puppies?"

"Watch," says the owner, as he takes one of the dogs and says, "Fetch the Bible." The dog runs over to the desk, and grabs the Bible in its mouth and returns. Putting the Bible on the floor, the owner says, "Find Psalm 23." The dog flips pages with its paw until he reaches the right page, and then stops. Amazed and delighted, the couple purchase the dog and head home.

That evening, they invite some friends over and show them the dog, having him run through his Psalm 23 routine. Impressed, one of the visitors asks "Does he also know 'regular' commands?"

"Gee, we don't know. We didn't ask," replies the husband.

Turning to the dog, he says, "Sit." The dog sits. He says, "Lie down." The dog lies down. He says "Roll over." The dog rolls over.

He says "Heel." The dog runs over to him, jumps up on the sofa, puts both paws on the owner's forehead and bows his head.

"Oh look!" the wife exclaims. "He's PENTECOSTAL!"
