Finally a Home Dedication

We were able to be part of a home dedication Thursday, Feb. 25 at 3 p.m. It's been five years since we experienced our first home dedication in Wauchula, Florida. MDS has worked at Mr. John's for approximately 9 weeks repairing his home. Our MDS group of 14, some case managers for SETIO (South East Texas Interfaith Organization), his grandson, Joe and a few friends were in attendance. Other family members were not able to attend due to the afternoon time frame.

The program consisted of a welcome, prayer, reading, presentation of a large print Bible, the MDS "Hammer Rings Hope" book, and a song "Amazing Grace". Coffee and cookies were enjoyed by all.





Joe surprised everyone with his solo of a verse of Amazing Grace.

The two Mr. John's have become quite attached to each other over the months. He expressed his appreciation of what we had done and we know we will be missed after having such regular interaction with all of us.

Joe has been instrumental in decorating the newly renovated home of his grandfather where he will be living and taking care of Mr. John.
