Changes are here!
The mens group continues to meet at the home to work through the list of requests from the Madre.
Jan. 2025 Loss of a supporter: James Leppard
James had not been well since last spring. On Saturday he suffered a stroke and died early this morning. It was very peaceful. I am so grateful that he did not suffer.
He really enjoyed the Tuesday morning ‘crew’ and was proud to be able to help improve the living situation there.
Keep up the good work! Please pass this news along to the other members. Enjoy the sea, the beach and the hot sunny days.
Just a note to let you know that our albergue work group is disbanding this year. This winter we lost five people due to deaths, moves, injuries, and other interests and commitments. Our biggest financial supporter Tony is not returning. But, mostly it was a consensus that those of us like Wayne, Ray, and myself, the people who have been there the longest, are ready to do other things.
However, we know that there are some individuals out there who might be interested in organizing and continuing the program. If there are, I am willing to help get them started next year, and we have a number of tools that we can donate to the cause. It would be a shame for the project to stall completely.
I will not tell the Madre that we are not coming back, in case there are some who are willing to keep the work going. If there are no takers, we will move the tools to the food bank to be sold next winter.
Thanks for all your help,
