In late July, Kentucky experienced historic flooding, leaving entire communities without resources or access to aid. After assessing needs, community leaders worked with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to have more than 85,000 bottles of water, 3,600 five-gallon plastic buckets full of cleaning supplies, food for more than 10,500 meals, and 600 pounds of clothing donated. Keith Parsons, leader of a Church of Jesus Christ congregation in Martin, Kentucky, said, “This is a huge deal for the people here. The cleaning buckets have everything you need to clean out a house. With prior floods in the area, we’ve handed them out before, and people have been asking, ‘Where are the buckets?’” With flooding not damaging Church buildings in the area, doors were opened to prepare meals for first responders to deliver, including hundreds of meals to firefighter and first responder volunteers. Elder Joey Moore, from Orem, Utah, shared, “It is pretty awesome we’ve got a chance to serve and help the community a little bit.” Learn more about their efforts at the link in our bio.
