Subject: please read this

To often as we go about our lives we see the suffering of others and turn away.We say to ourselves, "it's not my problem", or " I don't know these people so why should I care." or " let some one else help." or some other form of false justification for turning our backs and go on with our lives without giving a second thought to the suffering.I am as guilty as any of this foul behavour.It took loosing everything I owned and the unselfish charity of one man to make me see what a selfish, selfserving fool I was.This man pulled me out of poverty and helped me to regain self-dignity.He paid off ALL my depts, gave me a job,and taught me that all the wealth in the world was nothing if you fail to hold charity for others in your heart.In return for all he had done for me he asked only that I someday do the same for some one else.
That day has come.I am writing this message on behalf of a young family in Tennessee,U.S.A..Tim Bunnell is a loving Husband and father of five children.He has worked dilligently to provide for his families future until recently when he was diagnosed with inoperable cancer.When he became to sick to work he was fired from his construction job, leaving him with no insurance to cover the medical expenses which already reached in excess of $860,000.00.This brave family have lost their home, transportation and everything they have worked so hard to achieve yet they have stayed strong in their faith and their love for each other.
I have exhausted my savings trying to help them survive this crises and am now turning to my fellow man in hopes that there are others out there that can find it in their hearts to help this family.If you would like to help please send any contributions you wish to make to :
