Tree crushes Hope HouseUpdate on damaged Hope House:  Oasis Director, Terry Hoff said, "God has been very faithful.  With so many trees down in the storm from June 12th it should have taken days, if not weeks for a tree company to remove the huge tree that collapsed right onto one of our homes.  However, Bill Jurgens and Jones Brothers Tree Service were there the next day!  The contractor, William Parks, and the insurance adjustor agreed on the repair price immediately without any problems.  The contractor has been steady at work repairing the building and has about one week left to finish the job.  It was a major project but God protected the family and has worked out the details far better than could be imagined since then.  We are very thankful to Him for His provision.  And Glen is thankful to get his family back home without major delays.

hope house repaired after tree crushed itPosted June 13th:  Summer winds blew a huge tree right onto one of the properties built and owned by Oasis of Hope, crushing through the upper level of the house and landing largely in the children's first floor bedroom on Friday, June 12th.Thankfully, no one was home at the time, although the family (Glen & Toya Lloyd) had been there prior for the majority of the day.  Their response in the midst of this shocking event: "We are blessed.  No one was hurt and we are sssooo blessed."  Please keep this family in your prayers through the process of reconstruction.
