I have been a little busy and apologize for not getting the pictures posted sooner. I hope that you enjoy. Guys, sorry about the pink.

Scott Nichols Update

Hi everyone,

I hope that you are all well. I just wanted to share with you that we had the garage sale last weekend and raised a total of $600.00.  I will put $100.00 on both Scott & Melissa's books and give Bonnie $400.00 to bless the kids. Praise God for such a success and such wonderful helpers and generous givers, oh yea and the buyers too!

The more important news is that Scott has a new address. So if you were inclined to bless him with a note of encouragement this should be the address that he will have until he is processed and moved from reception.

Also, Scott was denied fire camp because of a weight issue. He is on an exercise and diet regimen so please pray that he would lose the weight safely and that fire camp would become available to him, if it is the Lord's will. It would knock off quite a bit of time from his sentence and that is a good thing, but God's ways are not always ours, are they?

God bless

Another Scott Update

I want to let everyone know that I will be having a garage sale on June 20th to raise money for Bonnie (Scott's Mother) and the kids just to help out with the little extras like growing teenagers and 4 year olds, summer fun, etc. If you are interested in helping me out, I could really use you. And if you have any items that were heading for the thrift store and you would like to donate them to this instead, please, please, please do so, soon. Please pray as well.
You can contact me by email @ angelalafalke@gmail.com

Also, if it is on your heart to send Scott any stamped envelopes he really could use them. It takes about 2 weeks for him to get mail, and I'm sure he would appreciate any encouragement that you may send along with those envelopes...(no shame, huh?)

This quote is taken from a letter that I received from Melissa about Scott's trip to prison and I hope that it encourages you as it did me. God hears the prayers of His saint's!

"On the way to prison, the guard that drove him was a victim of Scott Motors so he gave him a hard time. When Scott got to prison he was so weary and the guard who received him had compassion and put him directly with the "old men" on level 1-2 security instead of level 3-4. That was a miracle because it usually takes 2 weeks to house. God really used the trip up and the guard who received him! He has already had his physical and is in great shape!"
There was also a prayer request for Mike & Amy Daugherty. It seems that Mike has been accepted in to the Bridge Restoration Ministry and his wife is currently in the Door to Hope recovery house in Salinas. Praise God for what He is doing in this season of Scott and Melissa's lives. Our God is an awesome God!

I hope that you are all well and on behalf of Scott & the family thank you for everything.

In His love,

Angela

Scott Nichols Update

Hi everyone,

I just heard from Melissa and she was able to get a hold of Scotts CDC# and address where you can send letters. She said that this will be his permanent # so when he gets moved from reception the mail will catch up with him.

Melissa seems to think that the more letters that he receives while in reception, the quicker they may process him. I don't know how any of this stuff works but I do know that he could sure use encouragement so get those pens to the paper and watch God work. Please continue to pray that he will get processed quickly and that if it is the Lords will that he would be accepted in to the firecamp.

Thanks to you all. The family covets your prayers, support, encouragement and love.

In His love,
Angela
