The above picture is what is left of Heritage Baptist Church pastored by Richard Way in Houma, LA. ORH is in contact with him through Pastor Gordon Dickson in Findlay, OH. Pastor Dickson is attempting to encourage Pastor Way since his church is totally demolished. A new church will need to be built.
Pray insurance will be liberal with Pastor Way and his church, and that ORH will be able to assist this church back into a building. ORH thanks God for Pastor Dickson who has worked with ORH for over 15 years.
ORH thanks God for Pastor Bob Simpson, First Baptist Church, Roseland, LA; Pastor Wayne Dartez, Victory Baptist Church, Lake Charles, LA; and Pastor Aaron Weido, Temple Baptist Church, New Iberia, LA for their great spirit of mercy for those pastors and churches in need. Pastor Dartez went through Laura with ORH, and ORH was able to help. He is now returning this help to those in Ida. He said his church would attempt to make a $1000.00 offering for Ida work.
Pastor Will Cover and his church once again will be involved. Arise Baptist Church in Houston, TX will be forming a team to go to the impact area and work. They have done this so many times. ORH is proud to support their efforts.
Pastor Alan Jenkins and Nehemiah's network should have a truck on the road to the impact area very shortly. They will move at least 10000 lbs. of food and supplies to Bob Simpson. His church has a Gymnasium for storage and distribution. Nehemiah's Network is out of Columbia Road Baptist Church in the Cleveland, OH, area. Pastor Jenkins is a great friend.
Thank you for always helping ORH to help others.
