One of the organizations that we repeatedly helped out was the Church of Christ in the Forest Lake community. It was a great place that we could really connect one-on-one with the residence by feeding them and getting them some essentials for the home. I will be sharing pictures and stories from the lot later but right now, I just wanted to share the email from Mike. If you are available to help in Tuscaloosa or Minot, please feel free to email him.
