N-B Video: A divinely timed weekend

About 100 people, as part of a local church's weekend invite, stack cans and load boxes with nonperishable food items to ship to southern Indiana to help with tornado relief efforts. The group had planned several months before to pack boxes for food, so they unknowingly scheduled it on the day after tornadoes destroyed two towns in southern Indiana. "The Lord was working in this one here," said Dave Bussel, a volunteer with the organization that arranges to pack food. Because of the timing, Bussel was able to send 504 boxes of food to Indianapolis Saturday, after a food bank administrator said he needed it. Learn more in the Monday, March 5, News-Banner.
