Our family member, Michelle, has had a devastating home fire, initial damage estimated at around $100,000. She had items of sentimental value lost, but worst of all, she lost her beloved cat, Coco, in the fire. In addition, asbestos was just found in the house, now requiring demolition. We can anticipate a financial burden to increase beyond the initial estimate of $100,000. Her house was almost paid off. In addition, Michelle had been recently dealing with major health issues, requiring expensive treatment.

We thank God she was not burned in the fire, escaping to safety. However, one can imagine the emotional toll - despair, hopelessness, disruption of daily life, anxiety, sense of helplessness, displacement.

I've attached a couple of photos displaying the damage to the home entrance and kitchen, though there is much more.

She's asking for prayer. We need to support her in this difficult time.
