Deeside's Community Center roof is finished!

We thankful to the two groups of people who did the work as well as those who gave financially to cover the cost.

There is a family who choose to spend some family vacation time in Deeside working on the roof of the Community Center where we have our Food Distribution, where The Rescue Church meets and where a variety of additional community activities take place.

The roof was torn off by Hurricane Melissa. Part of it was replaced by a previous team in December.

Thank you God for holding back the rain today allowing them to get off to a great start!

Many of us take a Christmas meal for granted.

On Christmas Day The Care House distributed 50 chickens to people who are part of the Deeside Community. One person reached out today to say, "thank you." They commented they would not have had any meat to eat on Christmas Day if not for the chicken they received from The Care House.

Thank you for making it possible for us to serve people in the Deeside community.

On Sunday, more than 90 families in the Deeside community received bags of food & toilet paper!

There were also water filters for those who needed/wanted them. Thankfully water was restored to the community this past week.

Deeside continues to be without electricity. People have been working to restore the main line as quickly as possible. It will take some additional time to get it to homes.

Thank you to Sister Galloway and the Care House team who served the community.

Thank you, also, to those who generously give to make this possible. You may not see it first hand, but you are helping. Thank you!

These are a few photos from Deeside that provide a small glimpse into what people in Deeside, Jamaica are experiencing.

The yellow and blue building without a roof and the people standing near it is the Community Center where we do the monthly food distribution.

Down that driveway is where a nearly finished home for Shanique once stood. This is the one a team from the US partnered to help build this past summer.

Things are hard, but The Care House plans to be in Deeside with the people of Deeside throughout the recovery.
