Up with the sun....This morning our mule team is moving to a new location to check on homes affected by the flooding. As recovery continues and access improves, we're helping make sure no homes or communities are overlooked.
We are incredibly encouraged by the progress already being made across West Virginia. Thanks to the outstanding work of state and local officials, the National Guard, first responders, and fellow nonprofit organizations, recovery efforts are moving forward quickly, and the number of closed roads continues to decrease each day.
Our hearts remain with the families grieving the loss of two lives in these floods. Please continue to keep them, along with everyone working in the recovery effort, in your prayers.
Each day we receive updated information through briefings with emergency officials, allowing us to adjust our efforts as needs change.
We are incredibly thankful for the kindness we've experienced throughout West Virginia. From those who have opened or offered their property to our mules, to every prayer, meal, message, and word of encouragement.... your hospitality has been a tremendous blessing.
Many of you have asked how you can help.
We'll be sharing volunteer as well as supply donation opportunities in the coming days as recovery efforts continue, so keep an eye on our page for updates.
Finally, we are proud of every mule on this team. Several are serving on their first disaster deployment, and they have handled every challenge with calmness and confidence. Seeing their training put into action has been rewarding for the entire team.
Thank you for praying, encouraging, and walking alongside Mission Mules as we continue delivering hope...one home, one trail, and one community at a time. ๐๐ป๐ซโค๏ธ
