Hurricane Francine Help for 91-Year-Old Resident

Sep 17, 2024

LOUISIANA – The Operation Blessing U.S. disaster relief team is in Kenner, Louisiana, after Hurricane Francine brought heavy winds, localized flooding, and mass power outages to the region.

91-year-old local, Nolan, shared his experience in the storm. “It was originally a category one, and it came in as a two. A lot more volume of the wind. And it actually destroyed some of my property.”

Debris and Yard Cleanup after Hurricane Francine

Thanks to your support and your prayers, we’ve been able to partner with Church of the King to provide warm meals, water, ice, and to get out into victims’ yards to clean up debris and remove downed trees.

Nolan said, “They cut down two trees and they cleaned out my backyard. It’s been very nice. Everybody has been very good, very professional.” he continued. “I couldn’t have got this done any other way. I’d have had to wait until I could get money to do it. And that would have been a while.”

It’s because of you that we’ve been able to share God’s love and restore hope to those that are hurting in this region. You can help even more families in need when you visit https://www.ob.org/disaster-relief/ today!
