John and JoEllen Duncan tornado recovery

On October 24th, 2021 around 3pm, my parents were having a regular Sunday afternoon when they went into the back room of their home to pray. Little did they know they'd have the shock of their lives, when they looked out the window and saw a tornado right across the street. They had no time to get to the basement and dropped right to the floor where they were standing.

The tornado destroyed most of their home, ripping off the roof and many exterior walls, leaving only the three bedrooms in the back intact.

My parents have raised their family in this home for the past 20 years. They have touched the lives of many with their service to others, faith, and loving kindness. Now, because of the most unfortunate circumstances, we have an opportunity to bless them. Even though my childhood home is gone forever, we are hoping to be able to help them rebuild a home where we they can live and can gather with children and grandchildren to create more family memories.

They have already been so touched and humbled by the help, prayers, and support they have received. And we thank you from the most sincere and deepest part of our hearts, for your love and kindness. We are asking for donations (even the humblest donation is helpful) so we can help lift them through this tragic and hard time. Thank you!
