Flood Relief for Virginia and West Virginia
Close to 9 inches of rain fell in Pocahontas, Greenbrier, and Monroe counties in WV and Allegheny County in VA June 24. The ARP Churches and families in the area sustained minor damage limited to power and water outages and flooding in basements.
However, the communities of Rupert, Rainelle, and White Sulfur Springs in WV sustained heavy losses in property and life. Right now, crews from FEMA, the Red Cross, Samaritan’s Purse, SBC Disaster Relief, and local churches are working to help people clear out their belongings and begin the process of repair and rebuilding.
Please continue to pray for our area and the long term rebuild. Pray for families who have lost loved ones and praise God that the loss is not as bad as it could have been.
God bless,
Rev. Ike Hughes
