Hurricane Ike Update
Leeland Band
We can’t thank you all enough for praying during this terrible time. Through comments on our blog, we know that hundreds of you are.
Baytown, Texas, on the east side of Houston, is our hometown. The entire area is currently without power. We have countless family and friends who will be without work for weeks to come. The financial toll that a disaster like Hurricane Ike leaves is unbelievable.
Somehow, the homes of all of us in Leeland are completely fine except for Mike's place. The ceiling caved in, and he's going to have to find another place to live. Our church sustained significant damage. There is standing water in the sanctuary. The roof/ceiling leaked tremendously and lots of ceiling tiles caved in. We will be unable to have services at the church building for weeks and the building will need major repairs. We just found out today that the damage to the roof is so bad that the buliding could possibly be condemned. We'll find out soon either way.
Our hope is to rally all of the support we can for all of the people in the place we call home. If it’s on your heart to help, please send a monetary donation to:
1002 Meandering Way
Attn: David Childress
Franklin, TN 37067
Please make checks payable to “Celebration of Life Church.” No matter the size, it all helps.
Thanks for the love. God bless each of you.
Leeland, Jack, Jake, Mike and Matt (Leeland)
