Sunday Afternoon Update: North Carolina

Families across Western North Carolina are still reeling from the devastating flooding, but they are resilient.

We're feeding folks in Hendersonville who were trapped in their homes for days. Others lost their homes. Yet once they got to safety, many turned their attention to helping their neighbors, including volunteering with Mercy Chefs.

My team prepared a brief video to share this story of how, together, we can stand strong in the midst of disaster. Click on the image below to watch:

We're serving hot meals today. We've already served tens of thousands of meals here in North Carolina, and our work is far from over.

Will you partner with us to help our neighbors in Western North Carolina? Go here to sponsor hot meals for Helene victims while we continue other vital outreaches:

I'm so grateful for faithful friends who are partnering with us through your prayers and your support. We simply can't go unless you send us. Thanks for sending us with love and practical relief into the most desperate areas of one of the worst natural disasters we've seen.

God bless you richly,

Gary LeBlanc, Mercy Chefs

P.S. Another tropical storm has developed in the Gulf. Forecasters are saying it's likely to hit Florida as a major hurricane this week. Please pray. And please help as you can.
