Norma Rutledge - Ren's Visitations

Praise the Lord everybody.  I am Ren Rutledge, and I have a very deep love and appreciation for the woman of God who brought me to birth and taught me by example what Christian living is all about.  A few days ago our family was called in to be at her side, and we were told that she possibly would not make it through the night because of complete kidney failure and complications that followed.  I scrambled to get some funds together, and on short notice I bought a ticket to take me from Norwich, Connecticut to Little Rock, Arkansas to be at her side. I praise the Lord that I witnessed several miracles while there.  I could only stay for five days and had to be back in Connecticut because of serious needs in the Church that had to have my personal attention.  After pioneering the Norwich Tabernacle 32 years ago, and being away from my family all those years, getting spend very little time with my wonderful mom, I really feel a need to spend as much time as I can with her during these moments while she is suffering.  Our Church is involved in world wide ministries and we hold services on Main Street in Norwich, Connecticut and deal with drug addicts, and homeless people on a daily basis.  The work in Norwich, is seeing tremendous results, and we have many victorious testimonies here.  God has turned lives around and caused some who seemed to be not only homeless but also helpless to find the power and joy of Holy Ghost living.  As I see it, I need to make several trips to Arkansas while I maintain the work here in Norwich.  I could use some help during this difficult time.  My travel expenses for the past week including airfare, rented car, motel, etc amounted to 2000.00.  I have been giving everything to the Church including my social security checks for the past 32 years.  I stay at the Church and drive an old worn out car so the ministry here can continue without my expenses becoming a financial burden to these dear people here in Norwich.  I have been homeless by choice and glad to give all for this cause all these years, and I count it all joy to be in this battle for the Lord.  I need to go back to Little Rock within a week from now, and I do not have any funds.   If you can help us with a donation to cover some expenses of the next few weeks, I will deeply appreciate it.  God bless you, and I thank you in advance from the bottom of my heart.
