Yesterday we were able to receive some lumber, metal roofing and plastic buckets. The day before we were able to get a large truck load of food, which we have already started to distribute.
Today we are supposed to be getting some more food and supplies.
God is providing in amazing ways and we are so blessed to be receiving all these supplies to help the surrounding communities.
Yesterday we heard reports of how some of the churches affiliated with BHM are being used as places of shelter. One church in the community of Haute Pereaux has 90 people living in it. Praise God that these churches are safe places for people of the community to find shelter.
The reports of lost homes in the surrounding communities are staggering. Pastors and community leaders are starting to bring us lists of families and basic information about them, of those who have lost their homes completely and those who have had damage to their homes.
We are estimating to just provide the materials to help these people rebuild is going to be over $2 million.
We are seeing God provide in amazing ways and we are trusting that He will continue to meet the ongoing needs.
Thanks again for your prayers!
