Disaster Relief

RE: Disaster Relief

God forbid what happened in Piner, KY would ever happen in our community.  It is, however, a good idea to be as prepared as possible.  It sure makes one re-think backing up storage of important information and things in the home.  Some from within our community have had disaster relief training and others are engaging in it.  Let's stay connected as a community so as to be able to pull together in any time of need.  Below is some info about a day I spent helping a tornado victim down in Piner. 

RE: A little help for Tornado victims

Hi,

Today, Bill Leatherbee and I were privileged to serve a family in Piner, the Milner's, that survived the big storm. Let me assure you that the power of these storms are something to behold. Rob Milner made it to the basement but his wife Margie hid in a closet. That part of the house was the only part still standing. She told me she looked up saw sky and thank God that it wasn't her time yet. And it wasn't. We cut and stacked downed trees and helped in a small way but all of these folks need support and prayer as those that survived try to re-build their lives. It was an eye opener and a blessed experience all at the same time.

Few pics from our day helping the Milner's (victims of the Piner Tornado). At the beginning showing the ridge acrossed the road where three brick homes were but were completely, (I mean completely) gone. God help all those trying to rebuild and may they lean heavily on your grace and strength.
