"As you guys probably know by now Nashville had 100 flood this weekend and many homes are devastated and some families lost loved ones. We are so saddened by this. The worse it got for us was a river in our front yard massive flooding around us and our basement covered in water.
We are just so grateful and blessed that the only thing we had to deal with was a flooded basement. The rain started coming down as we left Saturday morning for the B3 Fight 5K. When we got to Shelby Park at 6:50am to register, there were a lot of people...:) You'll see in the pictures. Everyone kind of gathered under one cover as they could and so we waited to start the run. At 8am they announced that the lightning was too dangerous to allow anyone to run, so they canceled it.....:( They then announced that in 10min they would still give out the door prizes as if the race actually happened by pulling peoples names from the registration tabs. I felt that we should stay and wait because the Lord is with us and always gives us favor. I think they gave out between 15 - 20 door prizes. The last door prize was going to go to the 1st place ALL OVER winner of the race and when they pulled the name is was one of my brother's....:) We jumped up and clapped our hands, giving our a yipee...... so excited.......knowing that whatever we got this day would go to you Brenda, because its all for her. So you have a $50 gift certificate for a pair of new running shoes from New Balance in Cool Springs that's coming your way. I also have a goody bag for you.
While we were there I got to meet Jennifer who organized the event and allowed us to run for B3 Fight.
From there we left to go home and then got stranded at home unable to leave because of all the flood planes.
Bill, myself and the rest who came out feel so blessed that we could lift you up in prayer Brenda this morning and that we had the opportunity to come together for you.
We praise the Lord for having favor on us and to bless you by healing you completely. we all believe in you and that Christ is supernaturally working through you.
I hope you guys like the pictures.
Have a blessed day
Ilonka, Bill and Family...:)"
