Amen and amen good evening to you you can be seated welcome I want to welcome those of you joining us online

we're so glad that you are real quick before we get started I want to let you know that I spoke with pastor Steve Santos today

and then planning to provide an update on Sunday, Lord willing, and if we're still here,

I do have plans to talk with them tomorrow.

We need to go over a few very important details about everything that is ongoing in terms of the Maui mission support.

He did mention something though that I do want to share with you tonight and that is that

the fire is gone but the fear is not.

The fire is gone but the fear is not, meaning that there are so many people that are so fearful of the uncertainty of their future.

Their jobs.

They're a place to live.

A car to drive.

By the way, that's something I'm hoping to share a good report on Sunday.

We're working on right now a truck car for a single mom and another car, probably a minivan for a family with an autistic child.

So, I mean, what a privilege, you know, it is ours to be able to, you know, help in this way.

So we're working on that. But when I kind of asked him to expound on the fear factor, if I can call it that,

he said, yeah, you know, what's happening now, and it's kind of like what I shared

on Sunday, it's almost worse now than it was right after it happened, because now some two

plus months later is starting to sink in. And the reality of, you know, did that just happen?

Is starting to sink in and set in.

And just the reality of, wait a minute, am I still going to have a job?

Am I going to have a place to live?

He was telling me that, and this is so sad, that, you know, rent is just gone off the charts.
