Hurricane Fiona: Help those in need
/IN FIONA’S AFTERMATH
Families Need Help in Atlantic Canada
There is damage everywhere. Fiona, one of the strongest storms to hit Canada, has left a trail of destruction across the Atlantic. Homes and roofs are smashed, trees torn from their roots, and power out for thousands.
Families across Atlantic Canada need immediate help for the massive clean-up and recovery ahead.A Samaritan’s Purse Disaster Relief Unit tractor trailer left for Prince Edward Island this morning. Advance teams have been on the ground in the region since Friday. The Disaster Relief Unit will equip volunteer teams to remove fallen trees, tarp damaged roofs, and mud-out flooded homes.
“The devastation is so widespread,” said Tammy Suitor, Canadian disaster relief manager for Samaritan’s Purse. “We want to do all we can to serve people and communities who have lost so much.”
Most importantly, our teams will have the opportunity to share the hope of the Gospel and show those suffering that God has not forgotten them.A Disaster Relief Unit and support vehicles.
This storm and the devastation it has left behind is an extreme, historic event for Atlantic Canada. Please pray for the families struggling to recover in the aftermath, for the local churches, and for teams moving to help in Jesus’ Name.
Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
