We had the opportunity to payback the church that started our fire, Hand of Hope in Omaha. Redeemer Lutheran Church in Sioux City, IA had stepped up to own rebuilding a 100 year old Victorian farm house just seven miles northwest of Anthon, Iowa. It had been hit by a tornado on October 4th, 2013. The roof had been completely torn off and it sustained substantial damage to both the inside and outside of the home. The second home on their property vanished without a trace.

UPDATE - - - Two weeks before Christmas the family was able to move back into their home!
Although there is still a lot of trim work to finish and other work to do, the team from Redeemer in Sioux City did meet their goal to get enough done so that the family could celebrate Christmas back at home. These are pictures taken on December 20, 2014....
