Welcome to Buffalo!

We were greeted, by all who knew we were new to the city, with loud and gleeful choruses of, "Welcome to Buffalo!"
Yet in the midst of the devastation, and the loss of power (this is being touted as the worst power loss in the history of Western New York) God was able to bless us, and to use us to bless others.

We were able to dig several cars out of the snow, shovel half the sidewalks on our block, and share meals with many of our neighbors, all because of the snow.

I have posted pictures of the downed trees, power poles, blocked roads, destroyed houses, and also some pictures of some of our new friends. The one in the black sweat shirt is Tommy, he has 'joined' our church. He is drawing characatures of the residents at the home we visit; he was a smash hit!
