Reynard and Lois Mitchell understand quite well that recovery from Hurricane Ike will be a slow and stressful process. Three years ago after Katrina ravaged the Gulf Coast, the Mitchell’s evacuated and eventually settled in Houston. They were approved to build and purchase a home of their own with Habitat for Humanity earlier this year but, for the second time, a hurricane has affected their housing situation.
The Mitchells are not the only ones touched indirectly by Ike. Juana Rangel, a single mother of three is staying with her family along with over a dozen other family members. She really needs the stability of a home for her family, but her Habitat house is also in danger of not being completed without more help from volunteers. If you are available to give a day to these two families, we really need you on Wednesday, Thursdays or Saturdays at the site in Cypress. No experience is needed! If you can volunteer or you would like to make a donation towards construction expenses (the goal is $14,000), contact Ken Dinges
What a blessing it would be if we could help these two families be “home for the holidays”!
