MICHEALS’ MEMOIRS October 2022 Hurricane/Earthquake Update
Dear Friends and Family, We normally report on our work with Wycliffe Bible Translators, but we thought it appropriate to give you an update on the impact that Hurricane Ian had on our work, house and lives. We are happy to report the Lord was gracious and while we had lots of wind and rain, all is well and we sustained no damage to our home or had no harm to us or our family living in the area.
Hurricane Ian about ready to strike Florida
Wycliffe gave us time to prepare for the hurricane and so we got sandbags and with the help of our daughter Jenny, boarded up our back door and sandbagged two doors. That kept the water out!!! After the hurricane, Wycliffe gave us time to clean up. Again, our daughter Jenny and her husband Kevin and their three children came to help us, take down the boarded door, store the sandbags for next time and do yard cleanup. That gave us time to help a single older neighbor repair two sections of his fence that were blown down, a single mom with two kids repair her fence and an elderly neighbor couple clean up their yard. 1|Page
