Arizona

Every time I come to Arizona I am heartbroken. I see the poverty, the hopelessness and anger and I know I am supposed to be here.

This time we were able to work on a house for a man named Ricky. As you can see by the picture it is almost finished. Some paint, a floor, some cabinets and a toilet and Ricky will have a home. And not a minute too soon. You see he is living in a tent in the back "yard" of his sisters house. He can't live inside because she already has her entire family inside. It isn't uncommon to have 20 people in a house on the Reservation. His tent is under a small lean-to. Last night it was around 40 degrees.

Please pray for Ricky. I know I will.
