Deltona.  Sanford. Orlando.  Kissimee. 
Ft. Pierce.  Vero Beach.

Florida. The place where it all started, not so very long ago. Where kindness, compassion, and concern for the fellow man (and woman) began.

The Faith Bible Church resides in the city of Deltona, were I spent nearlly 29 years of my life.  I remember being a teenager, hanging out at the Sanford side of Lake Monroe, watching the apartment buildings I would eventually live in go up.  I remember sitting in my mustang on  dirt road, watching trucks coming over the bridge, and my B.F.F. Ginger teasing the truckers, challenging them to find our car.  The mall's massive parking lot now stands where we hid out. I remember well the feeling of the wind in my hair as I drove down I-4 towards Orlando, and my job at MGM Studios.

  Yet, I never thought, in all my days, as Mission Week came around at the Church, GOD would call my family and I to go on a mission-right in my own backyard.   This is the place where blankets made a big difference in the lives of many.
