Among them were Pastor Rick & Cindy Hester, the first flood surviors that HFI had the privilege of serving in our response to the Texas floods.   View Pastor Rick's moving message (below) as he thanks those who served him through Hope Force International.  

The need for help in South Texas remains great. Hope Force International [HFI] will resume flood remediation efforts Monday, July 11 through Sunday, July 24.  (Come for a few days or the entire time.)
