Tom, Sarah, and their son Cole have always been the kind of family who put others first. Tom serves as a pastor at a Baptist church in Norway, MI, and together with Sarah and Cole, they have touched many lives in their community. On January 30th, 2026, while they were at bible study, they received devastating news—their home was on fire. By the time they arrived, the house and garage were completely destroyed, along with their truck and all of their belongings. The cause of the fire is still unknown, but the impact on their lives is clear and overwhelming.
Now, Tom, Sarah, and Cole are facing the difficult task of starting over from scratch. They are in urgent need of essentials like clothing and basic necessities. Cole, who had just returned home from basic training for the Army National Guard, also lost everything he owned in the fire. The family is doing their best to stay strong, but the road ahead is long and uncertain.
Tom, Sarah, and Cole are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet—a great Christian family who would help anyone in need. They are sincerely in need of support however anyone can give. Anything you can donate, whether it be monetary, clothing, or prayers, would be greatly appreciated. Your kindness will help them rebuild their lives and remind them that they are not alone in this difficult time.
