<div>Hi friends, family, and community—

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Chris and Elizabeth Barnes have recently experienced a devastating fire that has changed their lives in an instant. While we are incredibly thankful that they are safe, the fire caused the loss of many of their belongings and everyday essentials.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>In addition to the loss of their home and belongings, Chris is currently in the hospital and is expected to come home within the next week. As he recovers and prepares to return home, we have an opportunity as a community to come alongside Chris and Elizabeth with care and support.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>As Chris and Elizabeth begin the process of healing and rebuilding, we wanted to create a way for people to help in a tangible, meaningful way. Funds raised will go directly toward replacing basic necessities and supporting them during this critical season.

<div>Any donation, no matter the size, is deeply appreciated and will make a real difference. If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing this page and keeping Chris and Elizabeth in your thoughts and prayers.
