HOPEww Responding to Hurricane Ida

HOPE worldwide • September 3, 2021


UPDATE 9.17.21



HOPE worldwide’s Global Disaster Response team along with volunteers from the Gulf Coast, Houston and North River Chapters of HOPE worldwide, The New Orleans Church, and The Bridge Church in Baton Rouge have been serving in New Orleans the last two weekends.

Volunteers have helped clean up debris for homes in the affected areas. Generators and Air conditioners were also provided to families who lost power.


Several of our brothers and sisters and their families suffered damage from the storm. One family with two small children had 4 feet of water flood the entire house. Our volunteer team helped clear the home of all furniture and personal belongings to prepare the house to be dried out and rebuilt.


“Thank you for being inspired by our father God to come out here to us and to show us so much love.” Jaquelyn Hanes

We are deeply saddened by the passing of our dear friend and brother, Dave Tomlinson. Dave was a beloved part of the HOPE worldwide family who served in many capacities throughout his time with us, most recently as Chief Operating Officer before his retirement. He also played an important role in our Global Disaster Response and Community Service Brigades teams, serving alongside his wife, Angela. More than the roles he held, Dave was a cherished friend whose warmth, kindness, and genuine spirit touched so many people. His care for others was evident in the way he served, led, and built relationships with people around the world. Dave had a remarkable ability to encourage, uplift, and connect with people, reflecting God's love in both his leadership and his friendships. We will miss Dave deeply and are grateful for the many ways he gave of himself to HOPE worldwide and to the amazing people we get to serve. We’re holding Angela and their family close in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Dave’s presence will be deeply missed, but his faith, love, and example will remain in our hearts forever and his legacy will continue to inspire all who had the privilege of knowing him.
