Joplin aftermath

Yesterday we took a small group of individuals from Springhill to Joplin to help out a couple whose house was severely damaged. Their house is still standing but it has suffered some severe damage fromt he tornado. Springhill is going to have an opportunity to serve ur brothers & sisters in multiple ways over the coming days, weeks and months. It is going to be a long and arduous process and we want to do all that we can to help them through this difficult season.

So, here is the plan over the next couple of weeks. Springhill will be planning on taking mulitple teams down to help in the debris removal process for homes as well as looking for opportunities to help families in any way we can. As of right now we are encouraging everyone to make a $10 donation to Convoy of Hope by texting Convoy to 50555. For every $1 donated Convoy can get $7 worth of food and water. This is an awesome opportunity to be a blessing and be wise with our money.
