Seminole, Oklahoma was already a chronic need area when 2 tornadoes ripped through the town in May of 2022. Survivors were left devastated with no resources to rebuild their lives.
Hope Force is committed to a long-term presence in Seminole to help rebuild this complex disaster zone (where a natural disaster made chronic need even worse). Here are some progress updates:
- Hope Force has two highly skilled teams coming over the next two weeks to get our first brand new home build in Seminole erected and “in the dry” on the new foundation that was built and poured last month. These teams will erect the walls that were pre-built in Nashville this past spring at Woodmont Christian Church, and then trucked to Seminole.
- God has provided powerful partnerships in Seminole to help rebuilding efforts go even faster. Here are some of our partners:
- Seminole Foundation
- Community Development of Seminole
- First Assemblies of God Bowlegs
- Christ Community Church of Edmond
- First Presbyterian Church of Edmond
