On Tuesday, September 29, 2015, the cargo ship El Faro left Jacksonville, Florida, on a routine trip to Puerto Rico. On Thursday, October 1, 2015, contact with the ship was lost as El Faro succumbed to Hurricane Joaquin after experiencing mechanical issues. Family, friends, and co-workers hope and pray for the best. Sadly, the Coast Guard suspended search and rescue activities on Wednesday, October 7, 2015.
Frank Hamm III, a seasoned mariner since 1999, a loving and dedicated husband to Rochelle, proud father of five, doting grandfather, and true friend was on board that vessel. Frank is a Godly man, an amazing provider for his family, and a cheerful giver of himself and his resources. His smile can light up any dark place and his laugh is contagious. His wife, our friend and coworker, Rochelle Hamm is an amazing, Godly woman who has a smile, a hug, and a kind word for anyone she meets. Rochelle is giving and warm, and she continues to pray for his safe return. Frank is her best friend, her provider, and partner in love and in life.

Your donation will be used to help Rochelle and her family sustain their daily livng expenses until Frank's return. We ask for your prayers foremost and thank you for your blessing of a donation in any amount you can provide.
