As wildfires burn across Texas, volunteers with Texas Baptist Men are helping those who’ve already lost homes clear the ashes.
"It's a blessing to be able to reach out and to see our volunteers reach out as they have to bring help, hope and healing to a hurting world, and we're trying not to miss anybody in the midst of that,” he said.
Though TBM is used to responding when disaster strikes, Wells said it's rarely on this scale with about 150 volunteers currently spread between seven different crises. Even so, with a fire threat that remains high and a severe weather season just getting started, he says TVM is also prepared for future deployments, even if that means relying on a network that stretches across 42 states of groups like theirs willing to help Texans in need.
