February R&R for Wounded Warriors

What a great weather for an R&R weekend!!  We had 7 wounded warriors & family members; the Chaplain & his family for a total of 20 guests.

Some of the "Presbyterian Worker Bees"

Memorial Presbyterian Church provided Friday night dinner for everyone. Besides preparing a delicious meal, there were several Presbyterians there to greet the warriors as they arrived making them feel welcome.

What made it doubly nice was many of the host couples were there to meet and visit with "their family" during dinner.  The church's generosity didn't stop with the fine hospitality & dinner. They presented Wounded Warriors at Nebo with a $350 donation for future events.

The only "group" activity for Saturday was dinner at Andy's Steak and Seafood Grill so everyone could do their own thing.  Some explored the shops on main street, Chaplain Ginsburg & son Bryce climbed a wall at Enchanted Rock while several just "hung out" enjoying the peace & quiet of the Hill Country.  Dinner was Chicken Fried Steak and all the trimmings-DONATED by Andy's!!  Bless you, Don, for your generosity!!  A bonus was Jenelle Ginsburg agreeing to sing a couple of songs.  What an incredible voice! Check out the video on facebook facebook.com/ww.nebo to hear her.

After dinner some went to the Rock Box, some to Fritztown Cinema (tickets donated) and several went to see Little Shop of  Horrors at Fredericksburg Theater Company (tickets donated).

The Davis' will soon be returning to North Carolina so this may be the last event they can attend. They will be missed.  Following is a note they gave us at dinner.

• "Ladies, James & I have been beyond blessed to have met each of you! Thank you so much for the wonderful weekends you have been able to plan for us. We look forward to telling our friends and family back home about the Ladies at Nebo!!  signed, Samantha Davis & James Davis."

We wish the Davis' well.

It's notes like this and the verbal "notes of gratitude" and of course the hugs we receive that give us conformation we are following GOD'S plan.  However, none of these events would be possible without your support.  We thank all of you who have provided funds to continue serving the warriors. Believe it or not it takes more than funding to provide an R&R weekend.  The following people, business and churches  provided the additional support.
