The death toll continues to rise and thousands have been displaced.  <\/p>\n<p>IPHC Disaster Relief USA (DRUSA) is engaged in helping the families that have suffered such loss of life and property. In recent months IPHC pastor Rev. Rick Haug has become director of DRUSA (<a href=\"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/2022\/06\/24\/discipleship-ministries-announces-new-drusa-coordinator\/\">https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/2022\/06\/24\/discipleship-ministries-announces-new-drusa-coordinator\/<\/a>).    Rev. Haug went into action immediately upon receiving a request from Appalachian Conference Superintendent Bishop Preston Mathena for help. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cUpon receiving Bishop Preston Mathena\u2019s request, we have decided to activate DRUSA to help the flood victims of Kentucky. The IPHC congregation in Hindman was not damaged but the area around them was devastated,\u201d said Rev. Haug. He also mentioned that the DRUSA response will center around providing Lowe\u2019s and Home Depot gift cards to families to help them in the restoration of their homes.  <\/p>\n<p>To help in this worthy cause, you can make a check payable to IPHC DRUSA and earmark \u201cKentucky flood,\u201d or give at <a href=\"https:\/\/give.iphc.org\/project\/drusa-mobile-feeding-kitchen\">https:\/\/give.iphc.org\/project\/drusa-mobile-feeding-kitchen<\/a> and earmark \u201cKentucky flood.\u201d Thank you for your personal and congregational response to this important need. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"excerpt","protected":false},"author":35,"featured_media":1255,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","episode_type":"","audio_file":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","filesize_raw":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[903,4,15],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-9263","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-disaster-relief","8":"category-discipleship-ministries","9":"category-mens-ministries","10":"entry"},"title_es":"","content_es":"","author_name":"","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/08\/DRUSA_LOGO.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4T9u2-2pp","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9263","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/35"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9263"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9263\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1255"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9263"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9263"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9263"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
