Will y’all please say a prayer for the families staying with us who have evacuated from the hurricane?
Some packed up their children, pets, and whatever they could grab in about an hour and left everything else behind. Many left without a plan, figuring out where to go along the drive. I’m so sentimental, I can’t imagine trying to decide what to bring and what to leave or the worry that comes with it.
They didn’t end up in Laurel for a vacation or to see Hometown. They came because they needed somewhere safe. My hope is that while they’re here, they can rest, take a deep breath, and feel at least a little bit at home while they wait for this storm to pass.
Please pray for calm nerves, protected homes, safe travels, and peace in all the uncertainty.
Jesus, be with these families. Help them feel Your presence as they wait, watch, and worry. We can’t make the storm pass any faster, but we can offer a safe place to land and a little love while it does. ❤️
