McKamie Fire Fund

Wayne and Jean McKamie's 100-year-old farmhouse caught fire on December 22, 2016, as many of you know. This is the home where they were married 65 years ago and raised their four boys. The fire inspector attributed the cause to an electrical short, and the insurance company determined the damage amounted to a total loss.
In addition to the structure, much of the content, including clothes, furniture, antiques and old books were lost. Irreplaceable memorabilia collected during the decades of Wayne's travels as an evangelist were destroyed. Before rebuilding can start, the land must be cleared of debris; and since this is a rural area, a new septic system and drive will be needed. The insurance is insufficient to cover the cost of everything.
Many of us attended the New Year's Meeting in Oklahoma City last week where we heard sermons on the theme, "No Longer I."
I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me. (Galatians 2:20, ESV)
Wayne often came to mind during the meeting. This is his favorite scripture, and he has used it for the foundation of sermons. Even though we may not recall his words, we have seen them exemplified in his humble, gracious, and selfless life, always putting Christ and others ahead of himself.
Wayne and Jean were beside us in the darkest hour of our lives, and we will be there for them. Although they would never ask for anything, we are inviting you join us and contribute whatever amount you can to help them recover from this tragedy.
Thank you,
Ronnie and Sandi Wallace
