Dear Friends,
You will find a few seconds of video attached to this update.
The video is made by Brad Kennon around Warsaw, NC. As you can see even
this far from the coast flooding is happening. There will be many in
need. This is an opportunity for the church to demonstrate the love and
compassion of Christ to the world in need.
“Jan, I have made phone calls to New Bern, Kinston, and
Fayetteville this morning. So far, I have not been able to get any information
all phones are down. So, I have sent emails and texts to see if that mode
of communication will work. Looking for a landing Zone to set up in those
areas. Just keeping you advised. God bless your travel, Brad”
Brad communicated with Ralph Pence about the need to obtain
tarps. He will continue searching and going further into the impact area
as the flooding allows.
“I am sending you additional information regarding what
type damage has happened here. A lot of roof damage and flooding.
So, as you reach out for donations, please, mention tarps as well as the normal
staples. It is going be a couple of days before we can get into the
areas. Really massive flooding. Let me know how it is going, and I
hopefully will have a staging area within the next few days.”
Brad is also attempting to get help with a generator which
is at FBN radio network. (see in PDF)
“Dan, Nice speaking with you. I have enclosed the 3
photos of the generator. Thank you for your willingness to help. I will
let you know when we have access to the affected areas. God Bless, Brad
Kennon”
Brad will be able to direct prepared people to sites where
work is needed. He is in contact with Dan Esch for demolition and
restoration. Dan wrote the following to ORH.
“If you have information to send along that would be
great. We have an enclosed trailer loaded and ready from our
area…. Thanks so much, God Bless, Dan Esch”
Please use the emergency number to let us know of the
needs. ORH will get your requests and do all possible to help. Send
