HELENE RELIEF
All across western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee we have brothers and sisters that are experiencing tremendous loss and pain from the aftermath of hurricane Helene. It is hard to see the videos and photos showing the condition that our communities have been left in following the storm, but we can take comfort in knowing that our God is our refuge and strength when we are in trouble.
Countless federal and state agencies and organizations are working tirelessly around the clock to rescue and assist those affected by this storm. Not just here in North Carolina and Tennessee, but also in Georgia, Florida, and other communities around our great country.​​
​​Grace Chapel and Freedom Christian Academy are partnering with the Alamance County Sheriff's Office to provide relief to the community in Burnsville, North Carolina. Burnsville is home to 1,612 residence that have had their lives turned upside down by the devastation that hurricane Helene unleashed on their community.
Through your love and support and the valiant efforts by the Alamance County Sheriff's Office and local first responders and community leaders, we can bring love and hope to those who are still trying to make sense of what to do next.
OCTOBER 10TH UPDATE
We cannot thank you all enough for your monetary donations, physical time, and supply support for the people impacted by Hurricane Helene. A truck full of blessings goes out tomorrow at 5 am and we are so thankful knowing our Freedom and Grace families supported this endeavor with a full heart. The support was so good in fact, that we have more tractor trailers of supplies that will need to go up.
Because of the overwhelming support, we are going to suspend our efforts in receiving donations for the mountains of NC because we have nowhere to store them. What a great problem to have and what that says about the generosity of our Freedom and Grace families is just so humbling. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Please look for more emails to come for when we will open up our doors for more donations.
