Good effort made to solve a problem

Saturday October 31, 2009
 

Kudos to John and Sylvia Ronsvalle for brokering a solution to the Safe Haven tent community.

On Oct. 21, The News-Gazette reported that they "proposed in August that volunteers and tradesmen make repairs so Restoration Urban Ministries could take in Safe Haven members."

What a good example of taking personal initiative to help solve a problem not personal to them. But that's nothing new. They have headed up empty tomb since the early '70s, the local Christian agency that provides a framework for hundreds of volunteers to give goods and services to those in need.
