Everyone who has been to Lakeshore over the past 14 months has fallen in love with James and Mrs. Bea. Mrs. Bea serves tirelessly in our food distribution center. James works as our right hand man in the rebuilding efforts. Katrina completely destroyed their home. The week after the storm I posted a plea to find them a camper to live in. They later moved into a FEMA issued camper and then into a garage built by volunteers. Its great to see their house finally going up.

I meet this couple this weekend. They are the nicest and friendliest people. They a burning desire for God. I sent time with Mrs.bea. She loves her family with all her heart. Can’t wait to return to this area to help out more.
We as a couple watched as MISS BEA would take her own money to put food on the shelves at the store on many an occasion . Her love for the people that come to the store and her house shows Her love for the Lord.
Mrs. Bea puts her absolute heart and soul into improving this place. No matter what struggles she herself is facing, she never allows them to impact the way she works to better her community. God’s love truly shines through her.
