B-Teamer in need
UPDATE 04/04/06: Please take a moment to read Ron's latest update. Your generosity has been amazing. Beautiful even. I am finding the example set by this small virtual community to be quite touching. A real It's a Wonderful Life moment - but better - everybody knew George Bailey, many of you did not know Ron personally, but heard he could use a hand and you immediately reached out. Thank you, and most importantly, Ron thanks you.
God has a plan. Sometimes the glory in it is very apparent, sometimes it isn't. Sometimes it is brings joy to the heart, sometimes it brings pain. Sometimes it is easier to accept than others, but His plan always calls on us to help one another.
Fellow B-Teamer Ron Rolling, a man I consider a friend, is having rough go of things lately. Some of have been there, some of us will be there, and others will only be able to consider what it is like to be there. Whichever the case may be, we can empathize and sympathize and are intuitively drawn to help. As Catholics we know prayer is our greatest tool, and that's all well and good, but sometimes we have to put our prayers into action, and that's just what a number of people are doing.
Please remember Ron in your prayers, but if you can do anything at all materially, I know he would be very grateful, as would your B-team bretheren. He has a PayPal link on his blog, A Wing and a Prayer. Don't let it go to waste. ;)
Thank you and God bless.
Word from Ron this morning:
(UPDATE: The donor roll has increased to 59, as of a few minutes before the new day begins. The job interview that was scheduled for the past afternoon is postponed until noon tomorrow.)Thank you B-Teamers and everyone else who has chipped in and/or prayed. It's actually quite touching when you think about it.

There are a lot of Amateur Catholics out there. With so many of us, even small donations can add up to a lot of help for Ron.
If you can find it in your hearts and in your budgets, please remember Ron in you Lenten almsgiving.
Thanks.
At the very least, those of us that blog can spread the word. Let's give those that can make a contribution to him the opportunity to do so!
Donated and blogged it to spread the word.
God Bless ya.
Donated right away, early last night, as soon as his RSS arrived. It wasn't much at all but it was what I was able to do.
Donated and blogged...will throw in some serious prayer Ron-wards, as well.
AMDG,
