HURRICANE HELENE UPDATE

WORK PROGRESSES! THANK YOU, DOUG AND TEAM!

TENNESSEE - Doug Carragher, Wounded Spirits Ministry, has come to help Grace Baptist Church in Newport, TN. Doug's group has been complemented by many workers sometimes as many 16 or more each day. ORH is thankful to work with Doug and his volunteers.

This has been a long grind for Grace after their destructive flood experience. The waters swirled through their buildings destroying furniture and structure.

Chris McAviney and his Church were some of the first to go and help Pastor Keeton and his congregation. Chris and his team spent a full week helping tear out the damage done by the storm making it ready for sheetrock and repair. Central Baptist of Greenville, TN has been a great help in our work with Grace.

Doug and his teams came next with sheetrock and wall repair plus other needs. Doug and his crews have installed over 700 sheets of sheetrock. This will make it possible for "tappers and mudders" to come and prepare the walls for painting.

ORH is thankful for being able to help purchase the sheetrock with a substantial gift to the Church. There is still much work to be done at the church. A new crew is scheduled to come very soon.

Pray for the church to be in their buildings soon. Currently they are meeting in a parking lot across from the church. ORH will stay with this fine church until everything is finished by the grace of God at Grace.

FLORIDA - Pastor Bud Calvert agreed to help ORH with reports from Florida. He reported the following.

"Kevin Pridemore definitely has so me legitimate needs. I will attach some pictures that will be self-explanatory, and some I marked to point out needs. Kevin and his wife, Heather, are both conservative Ind Baptists and seem to be doing a good job there in the community. They took over a ministry about a year or two ago

FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH, MATLACHA, FL

THE CHURCHES ROOMS ARE VERY DAMAGED

with five people and are now running about 40.

Their needs right now are with finishing the auditorium and SS building and with them doing the work, he figures it will be about $20,000 in materials, not counting the parsonage. No one lives in the parsonage and he said that's the last thing they will work on. When they do he is going to use it for office space and a prophet's chamber.

We (my wife andI) went to his house to assess the damage, and he said it would take about $2,000 for materials and he would do the labor. It needs some Sheetrock around the bottom area and floor molding in most of the house.

The bathrooms in the SS building need a lot of work...they are going to rip up the carpet and replace the boards underneath and then re-carpet all of it...."

BUILDING STRIPPED-OUT

Pray for the church and the work which must be done. Pray for workers to go and help. Pray as ORH provides funds for materials to rebuild.
