Apison, TN Disaster Relief Urgent Needs

Call for Help in Apison, Tennessee

We are quickly coming to the end of our time here in Apison, and it feels as if we have barely scratched the surface.  This small community suffered a lot and continues to suffer from the devastating tornados that swept through the area last spring.  The community pushes on, yet it is evident that many have been deeply affected by all that has happened.  We have truly been blessed to be part of the recovery process.  The Lord has done a great work here, and our prayer is that the hope that only the Lord can give will continue to draw others to Him.

While some residents have had to deal with simpler repairs --yard clean up and small home repair—that have allowed them to get back into their homes right away, many others are still without homes or are unable to get back into their existing homes because the houses are in need of major repairs.

At this point there are no more volunteer teams scheduled to come into the area!  There is still a lot of work to be done, and there will continue to be for some time.  Some grant money is available through a local charity organization, and there is the possibility for even more.  If this money is used to hire contractors and purchase supplies, it will quickly be exhausted, but it could go a lot further if volunteers would continue to come in and give their time and efforts.  While some jobs do require construction-specific skills, there are plenty of tasks that do not require specific skills.  In addition, there are individuals here who are willing to direct those who don’t know as much as others.

Please pray about volunteering your time and talents to the people of Apison.  It will be greatly appreciated and you will receive a blessing greater than the one you are trying to give!  Please contact us if you need more information, or if you need help putting a team together or in leading a team. We will be happy to help you in any way we can.  We might even consider making a return trip to oversee more work and provide tools.  Housing, showers and a kitchen are available.  No more waiting-it is time for action.  God has something here for you to do!!


Thanks for all your prayers and support.

Proclaiming the Lord in all we do,
In season and out of season.

Lord Bless,
Curt & Mary Jo Hencye
