Don't laugh too hard --- you remember seeing IGO Disaster Relief warehouse #1 a few months ago. And you also remember I painted it a lovely deep red.
Well, Monty managed to "salvage" another one which will become warehouse #2 somewhere in the near future!
You still want to laugh? Go ahead --- but beggars can't be chosers so here we are -- rebuilding once again -- and notice the smile on his face? The joy of the Lord pouring out (accompanied by exhaustion after working a 12 hour day in this heat)!
A new roof, floor, exterior walls, trim and paint --- she'll be good as new, if not better!
Michael got a little more work done on Saturday. I admit I didn't even know Rob was planning on going or I would have gone and atleast got you some more pictures. He told me yesterday at church that he had done some electrical and moved and built a few more things to bring him closer to being really done! Thanks Rob --- your generosity and heart of service are unmatchable!
We also have our 2nd Maui team meeting later this week. There's a total of 9 of us going now and we are so excited. Looks like 5 of us will be staying in the actual facility, in the loft area. The other 4 will be staying at the directors' home (Alton and Linda). The time is getting closer and closer and we are getting more and more excited. I know God has something special for each of us and it will be beyond anything we could ever imagine!
I am still desperately trying to raise funding --- and I mean desperately! So please think about helping defray the costs -- nothing is too small and of course, nothing is too big! :) Just see the notation at the top for details or just go to www.igorelief.org and look for the link "donate now" at the bottom of the first page. I thank you for helping!
Until next time . . . blessings to all. Susan and Monty

About Me
- Susan and Monty Scales
- We've spent years helping families rebuild their lives and homes after natural disasters. Those adventures have taken us to Mississippi, Louisiana, Indiana and Texas. God is now teaching me there are numerous definitions of "disaster." This new adventure of driving a school bus is taking me into a whole new world of "rebuilding." Stay tuned and see the hand of God in action! Jesus really does "love the little children; red, yellow, black and white . . ."
