Help! Parent's home burned down!

Donation protected
On July 24, 2015, my parents lost EVERYTHING they had worked so hard for in a house fire.  The most important thing (thanks to God) is that they are safe, and are blessed with the opportunity to start all over. My father has worked as a welder for over 30 years in the hot, cold, rain, day and night to pay off his home  where he would raise his family.  My mother dedicated her life to raising us while my dad worked long hours and sometimes weeks at a time to earn an honest living.   His proudest accomplishment was raising his three kids in his home he built 30 years ago.   Recently  he was laid off from his job after the oil price declined. As he always has, he remained positive and told us as long as he had his home everything would be fine.  Last night in a fire he lost his home , all his belongings, and the thing that always kept him positive. His work has never been secure, which unfortunately led to him not having home insurance at the time of the fire.  Even as he watched his home blaze violently  in the wind he hugged us and assured everything would be fine.  My parents are righteous, lovable people who are always ready to help others.  This morning we went to their home to see what if anything  had survived the fire.  What we found was a breathtaking symbol (pictured) that reminded us that no matter how hard the fire blazes God is always with us and hope remains for us all.  Please help by donating to my parents and brother, to give them the opportunity to rebuild their lives one step at a time. God Bless!
