Title: Volunteers STILL Needed for Flood Victims
Topic: Operation Blessing
Discussed by Raymond McGregor
with Operation Blessing International (www.OB.org)
Operation Blessing International Deploys U.S. Disaster Relief Team to Rosenberg, TX, for Flood Relief.
Raymond McGregor is the Deputy Director of Disaster Relief with Operation Blessing. Many people in South Texas are still displaced from their homes weeks after the disastrous flooding in the region.
Operation Blessing couldn’t help these desperate people without the aid of volunteers – people like YOU!
Questions/Issues Discussed:
How was the most recent flood different from the previous one? Raymond shares a story about one particular family who was just now able to finally see their home after weeks of waiting.
What are the steps involved when Operation Blessing offers their assistance to a community in need? How can churches become involved in the clean-up process?
What does Operation Blessing need the most?
The base of operation in Rosenberg is located at B.F. Terry High School at 5500
Ave N. Volunteers are encouraged to arrive by 8 am SATURDAY, June 11 in long
pants, long sleeve shirt, and work boots or tennis shoes. No need to bring
anything except a willing heart – they even provide you with lunch! For more

Title: More Volunteers Needed this Saturday!
Topic: Operation Blessing
Discussed by Raymond McGregor
with Operation Blessing International (www.OB.org)
Raymond McGregor is the Deputy Director of Disaster Relief for
Operation Blessing. They have been partnering with
Powerhouse Church and the Mayor of Brookshire, Texas, to offer help and
hope to those devastated by the recent floods. Volunteers have been in
Brookshire for weeks, gutting homes, removing debris, and providing prayer and
support to flood victims. Operation Blessing has been out helping as
best they can, but there is more work to be done, with more people needing help
and homes needing repair.
Operation Blessing is asking anyone who can to come help this Saturday. No need
to sign up, just show up! Wear long pants, a light-weight long-sleeve shirt,
boots or tennis shoes, and sun screen. Volunteers gather at 8 am every day
Monday through Saturday at Powerhouse Church at 1818 Katyland Drive in
Katy.
Raymond shares a personal story of one family who was in desperate need of help.
Janice and her family were staying in a shelter after their home was flooded
with a foot of water. But, instead of having a pity party, Janice was serving
others who had been affected as well! What would you do in that situation?
Operation Blessing wants to make sure that “no one has fallen
through the cracks,” Raymond says. They are committed to staying until
every work order is fulfilled and every person who needs help receives it.
Volunteers are needed every day of the week, not just on Saturday. Please
prayerfully consider coming out any day of the week, with the exception of
Sunday – unless you want to come to church! If you aren’t capable of doing
physical labor, you can help serve meals or pray with families.
