Day 3-Amassed With the Spirit



Amassed with the Spirit is working at a site furthest away from Hartselle this week in Joppa, Alabama.  This team is working hands-on to prepare a home with tornado damage from the recent tornadoes.  We met up with this group late in the afternoon.  Although they were waiting to receive shingles to repair the roof and front of the house, they had accomplished a lot when we stopped by.

This team spent the day cutting down poison ivy, cleaning gutters, and preparing the front of the house for shingles.



The homeowner shared with the team that she heard the freight train sound from her home as the recent tornadoes hit the area.  She found shelter with her dog in her bathroom, and thankfully, there was only minor damage to her home.  However, around her home, were numerous areas of trees completely uprooted and homes with major damage to the roofs.



This team looks forward to repairing the roof of this home.
