ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition Makes An Impact

I had the pleasure, today, of meeting Patrick Hughes and his family. They are a wonderful group of people.

In case you don't know Patrick's story, check out these ESPN You Tube videos:





This kid is outstanding. From his demeanor to his attitude to his perspective, even though I only spent an hour with him he's certainly touched my life and the way I'll view it moving forward.

What brought me into his aquaintance? Through Northeast Christian Church's Trikes For Tikes ministry (which works to donate bicycles to special children and families), I had the privilege of delivering two bicycles this morning to Patrick's brothers. The family was preparing to move into a brand new home built (within four days) on the site of their old house. The entire project was part of ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition program with Ty Pennington. Here are some pictures I took of the event.
