Enterprise and Tornadoes

Thanks for all the emails and phone calls concerning the tornadoes that hit last Thursday. Enterprise, which is about an hour southeast of here, got hit the worst. Several colleagues here in Montgomery had family members at the school and one friend/colleague had a nephew who died....Andrew. One friend/colleague had a family friend died. They are highlighted below. Pray for all the families but especially the Jackson and Bowen families.

Tornado season is here....we hear it is going to be a busy season. Pray for the Roses and our city as we get ready. We have our safe spot! Jason and Russ aren't used to all the drills and I had forgotten how often they can go off.

The Roses spent the weekend visiting in Birmingham and speaking on missions in Gadsden, AL. We had a good time. Here is a picture that Jason took on our way to Birmingham. He thought it was "sweet" that a business had his name!




Peace,
The Roses 3

Honestly-I feel horrible about not knowing about the tornadoes, but I have to tell you-it is proof that I do not watch the news or read the paper!(Except for Page Six-lol!) I am glad you are all okay! On a completely different note-that's a very endearing pic Jason took of his "Deli"!
Be safe all of you!
