Hope Force International continues to respond to the plight of those whose homes were flooded in the recent, devastating flood. Teams are busily engaged in removing soaked carpet, saturated drywall and water-damaged flooring.  All this is necessary in order for the home to begin the “healing” process of recovery.

Until we could determine the extent of damage, we felt it best to limit deployment to Hope Force Reservists located in Tennessee.  However, we now recognize our need to expand the appeal for help to all Reservists across the country.  You are needed!

Please take a moment to watch this video of a flood survivor sharing his harrowing experience. (Translator:  HFI Reservist Jonathan Puckett --  Jack & Cherie Minton’s son-in-law).

If you’ve not served in post-flood remediation, remember, you can quickly learn how to be of indispensable value in helping to “muck out” a home that has been inundated with flooding. You will be working alongside experienced team members, and will find the comradery of service very meaningful.

Your continued prayers, participation and financial support are an essential expression of the partnership of compassion and hope.

If you can help, please: contact Connie Hasty immediately for more details: deployment@hopeforce.org
