Disaster Relief: Hurricanes Katrina, Rita & Wilma

A Team from East Texas Helps with Relief Work in Jasper

Filed under: East Texas — Administrator @ 6:43 pm

4a.m. That was the time our alarms rang each morning and we sprang into action. Our team was working with four other charities to provide 8,000 hot meals a day to the residents of Jasper County, who were without electricity for several weeks. (Jasper is just above Beaumont, where Hurricane Rita made landfall, and the eye passed through that area.) For Brandon, age 22, (3rd from the left on the group shot) it was the first time to join us on a mission. He is feeling the call of the Lord in his life, and is looking forward to working more with us.
