“I want to personally thank you for your love, acts of love shown to us following the hurricane. You truly demonstrate true Christian love to us in giving from your heart those supplies we needed.”
This is the opening of a letter writen by Elder Roy Brockington, Pastor of Progressive Church given to Century resident Helen Mincey. Mincey drove her personal vehicle, a taxi van, to the town of Mullins, South Carolina recently to deliver supplies collected by the town of Century and surrounding areas.
Mincy was met by Brockington and several deacons of the church to help unload the much-needed supplies.
Hurricane Florence struck the Carolinas in mid-September, damaging hundreds of thousands of homes and flood waters that still effect residents more than a month later.
“I wanted to do this for those people in need, because I have been there, I am there, and I know what it feels like to need basic supplies,” said Mincey. “I hope everybody will continue to think of those who are in need, and will reach out and help meet those needs. We are lucky right now, but that could change, and it could be us.”
