A family of five lost everything in a house fire in our hometown of Prineville last Friday night.

Several of the children are small, and the oldest girl is 13. The family is now staying in a hotel until they can find another place to live. 

I know many of you who frequent this blog live in the Willamette Valley, or other parts of the Pacific Northwest, so this tragedy doesn’t hit as close to home. The mother-in-law of the family works at the Chamber of Commerce, and I know her very well. 

My wife and I are donating several household items to the family including one of our TV’s, and toys. We are also making a cash donation to the family through Bank of the Cascades. 

If any of you feel led to donate, please contact Bank of the Cascades in Prineville, Oregon: (541) 447-6242. Donations can be made to: “Ambyr Miller - Deedie Court Fire.”

If there’s ever a time for God’s church to help out those in need, this would be it. 

Thanks!
