"Assisting people in re-gaining hope and a better way of life."

Monday, August 11, 2003

Since the article ran Sat. about our lease not being renewed, we have had many phone calls in support of our effort. Pastors from churches, members of congregations , the 'homeless' and citizens of Williamsburg have all offered help in this matter. Geoff and I appreciate all the love and support we have been given, but even still our goal is a home for the homeless. This is still our main focus. It looks like it will be York County we will go to, just as Wal-Mart had to do. It is a pity that even Wal-Mart had to go to another county, just 'across the tracks' . Sad that James City County and Williamsburg City keep wanting to push the large employment potentials and cash intake over to York County. I actually can understand Williamsburg City, since it has the least amount of space to build, but James City County has much land opportunity. With the way their Comprehensive Plan keeps business opportunities out of their area, it's a wonder that James City doesn't end up 'homeless' per se soon.
