SURVIVING HURRICANE IAN | SARASOTA HURRICANE AFTERMATH 2022

You have such a beautiful, loving community! I can't tell you how emotionally touched I was to see everyone pull together! And your family, helping others and the boy's cleaning up the yards. And you and Nick helping out your friends and neighbors! You my friend, and your family are beautiful, loving souls. And I'm so glad that your are all safe!

I am so grateful to the father for keeping you safe! His mighty hand is in everything we do! There are customers on my rural mail route who were in Florida they lost their home and will be returning to Illinois for the time being.

Been praying. I lived and lost everything thru hurricane Harvey. I swam out with my 1 year old grandson and 16 year old son. Our town was about 80% under water. We were never in the cone or even thought of in the middle of nite changed to late to get out. It happens. So thankful for total stranger's coming from every where to help. So glad y'all are safe. Great community coming together. Your community will be stronger ours got closer and made friends for life.

I lived in Naples for 5 years and I am heartbroken for my friends and church family down there. All were safe, but some have lost their livelihoods. Some ones I know in Ft. Myers had total losses as far as property. We were living in Naples when Irma hit in 2017. So glad you guys were safe. I thought maybe you were going to be, as we have another friends in Bradenton area and they had no damage besides vegetation. We were thinking and praying for you guys. Hurricanes are no joke. Someone is always going to suffer. 💜🙏🙌✝️😘

You truly are all so blessed to be a part of such an amazing church community, who were there to support each other through this intense storm. How comforting for you that there was this safe haven to go to, to help keep your families safe. And the rallying of everyone post storm with cleanup and providing assistance to aide those in need is inspiring. 😢Thank you for sharing your experience. God bless 😊❤️

We were so scared for our son and his family in Sarasota and are so so happy you’ve all made it through the storm. Praise the Lord you are ok.

So happy everyone is safe. Prayers for everyone in this storms path....

All I can say is that thank the lord you, family and neighbors are all okay. Praying for all of Florida that hit . God is watching over us.

My love and prayers were going up, and still are, for all affected. I am grateful that your family was spared any traumatic damage on your properties. Thank you for your service to your community. We are in everything together. You and Nick are a beautiful example of allowing God to work through us! Blessings to ALL! ❤

What a great community your church has! A great example for all the world to see!

So glad everyone is okay❤

I was so worried about your family. I am in the middle of South Carolina and we really dodged Ian. Our beaches got hit and piers gone. We had rain and wind. Prayers to everyone in Florida. 🙏❤️🙏

Been praying for you y’all you have been on my mind. I was worried about y’all. I’m just glad you y’all are ok thank you Lord

It’s wonderful that you were able to be together with your church family. Encouraging each other through the storm!

Glad you guys are ok and lobe hearing about the support everyone is giving.... Please keep us posted on your friends home and the flooding.. 🙏🙏🙏

I am thankful that you are safe. It is heartwarming that your church community came together to get through the storm.

I am so impressed by your community helping each other. I live in Virginia Beach and we lost power here. The winds were around 65 mph and wind gusts 80mph. Some shingles came off my daughter's roof and their skylight leaked on the bed. I thought about you the entire time it was hitting your area. So happy you came out ok. I am so proud of your boys for cleaning their grandparents yard like little men. They are amazing. Prayers of gratitude that no one was hurt.

You have been been on my mind, and your wonderful service to others is so kind. I'm so relieved that your family is safe. Your church community is wonderful.

So glad to hear you all are OK! We live in the panhandle and went through hurricane Michael. After all of our years here in Florida, that was the worst. So much devastation. We can definitely relate. So great that you have a church community to rally together and help others. We had the same and it’s a blessing for sure!

Thank God everyone is ok..we live in Lakeland and we got hit pretty hard and I have a cousin who was hurt pretty bad in Ft. Myers so prayers for him..thankfully we have power and just lots of limbs and trees down but house is solid! Stay safe!
