Help and Hope to Hurricane Victims in Jesus' Name![]()
When Tawana saw the storm surge rushing down her street as Hurricane Ian approached landfall, she went inside her house and cried.
She had been gathering her belongings to flee the storm, but it was simply too late.
When the waters receded the next morning, the light of day showed Tawana what she feared most: She had lost EVERYTHING—her furniture, her clothes, her appliances, her van …
The only thing she salvaged was her Bible, cell phone and three beloved dogs, which survived by balancing on a floating mattress.
Almost two weeks after the hurricane hit, the community STILL had no power, no potable water and no transportation. While FEMA was supposed to pay a visit to the neighborhood, there is no timetable as to how long her belongings—now reduced to storm-ruined trash—will remain heaped on the curb.
Our on-the-scene partners—serving as meal providers, emergency aid distributors and shoulders to cry on—are working day and night to minister to survivors and be the hands and feet of Jesus ... physically, emotionally and spiritually.
May God bless you for your compassionate response.
