Good Morning!! A few years ago I met a precious couple, who would become my regulars. They would come in once a week, and there was always great conversation. We had a common ground, helping the homeless and less fortunate. Our friendship grew, and even when they did not come in as often, our conversation picked up like no time had passed. I realized early on they Loved our heavenly father with ALL their hearts. In January they came in, we were catching up from the holidays. They asked if I was ready for the new year... " I am dreading it in a way, I feel I am not up to the task the Lord has for me, " I was feeling overwhelmed. Terry so gently told me about loosing his son in a motorcyle accident, now 11 years ago. I will never forget his story and through his grief he found amazing blessing's the Lord has given him since that tragic day. In Febuary they brought pictures of their vacation, a cruise, I was so honored they shared them with me. Last month they sat in booth #7 and told me..."Donna has breast cancer". I sat stunned and angry, this beautiful women that I have grown to respect and love, well there are no words. We prayed and Terry said, "God is great ALL the time". This couple that has lost so much, is praising him when they feel they are in the valley. Donna has started chemo, and with great courage and beautiful strength she has shaved her hair and Terry? well he did the same, and he had not had a haircut in 5 years. Yesterday she sat in my dining room with her beautiful white cap and her radiant heart shining through her eyes, she was on her way to another round of chemo. Their FAITH and love for our heavenly father has taught me so much. Through their pain and grief they are better not bitter. I want to have unwavering courage, strength and faith like Donna and Terry. Happy Tuesday yall.... I am asking for prayers for my friend Donna, our Lord has an amazing plan, and is the ultimate healer. When you face adversity today and in the coming weeks think of Donna and Terry, they have lived through great adversity and not only do they sing our heavenly fathers praises and they do it with more grace than I have ever witnessed. I am so honored and humbled to be apart of their journey. GOD is great all the time, repeat it yall and believe it Donna and Terry live by the words.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is [email protected] and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him

AuthorI opened the Cast Iron Grill in October 2007. Lots of changes have happened in the last 5 1/2 years. The CIG started with 55 seats in an office building located at 18th and K. After five years, we were bursting at the seams with now 167 seats, and 24 wonderful co-workers working on top of eachother to make it happen. 2012 the Lord chose a different journey for the CIG. We relocated the CIG and opened our doors on January 2nd, 2013, just four blocks away from the old location! It has changed my world completely! All of these stories are the happenings of the people and the joy and celebration that make the CIG what it is. Archives
