An Angel Named April by Molly

Sometimes in our day to day lives, God sends a person to remind us He is watching over us. These people always seem to show up just at the right time.  This week in NOLA we met an angel named April.

When the team left Minnesota, it was about forty degrees.  It wasn’t until they reached Missouri that they needed a little air conditioning and realized the AC on their rental van was on the fritz.  Needless to say, by the time they reached the city of New Orleans they were HOT! 

We contacted a local Chevy dealer to see what could be done.  After hearing the story of why the team was in town, and the amazing work they had done on Monday and Tuesday, our angel named April put the van at the front of the repair line.  When the repair took longer than expected, April aranged for rental cars free of charge so that the team would not miss their opportunity to see alligators.  She worked on the team’s behalf for 2 days to make sure that they would not have to make the trip back home in a sweltering vehicle.  All the while she smiled and expressed her appreciation to the team leader for bringing the kids here to help the city get back on its feet.

We give thanks to God for His reminders of love.  We give thanks for our angel named April.
