Dear ones,

At about 5:30 this morning lightning struck the power line to my parents’ house and ignited the gas heater, causing a fire. My family got out ok, but it sounds like the attic is completely charred and there is extensive smoke damage to the entire house.

They will not be able to live there until repairs and cleanup have been completed, and we’re praying that their insurance will put them up in a hotel.

Please pray for adequate accommodations and a swift resolution. My parents, John and Gwendolyn are also the guardians of my nephew Ben who is severely autistic and is in great distress.

Peace,

Jason
