Ohio Brings Relief for Families Moving Home
Orphan Grain Train Ohio rented a U-Haul truck to transport furniture, bedding, household items and clothing. Saturday, July 25th, the truck will arrive in Burnsville for the free giveaway of items to families who are finally able to move back into their homes. In September of 2024, Hurricane Helene devastated the area causing landslides, flooding and destruction of homes. Thank you, OGT Ohio volunteers for making another trip to this area. This is one of many truckloads that you have taken to the storm hit region of North Carolina.
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
Hebrews 12: 1 NIV
