Some who are familiar with Longport know that we are attempting to relocate inland. The oceanfront location causes us concern during storms. We will only be able to accomplish this as a result of the value of the present property. Its sale will provide the basic funds to build a new facility. Though we are not sure that its sale will account for all the cost, we are looking to the Lord to guide us in this undertaking. Pray with us.
I am reluctant to write some of the facts which I have because it is not the intent of the board to change our approach to our needs. However, to respond to the inquiry as to how the Lord's people can be better informed about operating a Home, I have sought to give this information. Other [[Retirement Homes|Homes]] such as Elim in Waubashene, [[Ontario]]; Linn Manor in Marion, [[Iowa]]; Bethany Lodge in Unionville, Ontario and others, have similar interests and needs. They could also clarify any questions which you might have.
"Is this my responsibility?" Consider the example of the Savior at the cross, and act accordingly. Yours will be the happy portion of knowing that your interests are in line with your Lord's. "I have been young and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread." (Ps. 39:25)."
