Last Sunday a fire swept through the home of Jane Thompson and family. The home and everything in it were a total loss.
Mrs. Thompson was taken to Iowa Specialty Hospital but according to a facebook post by her church was not seriously injured. Fortunately, all the members of the Thompson family escaped the fire.
Community efforts are now underway to assist the Thompsons in moving beyond this tragedy. A Meal Train has been set up for the family, where donors can arrange meals for the family. To sponsor a meal visit https://is.gd/GTu8Me and choose an available date.
Furniture donations will be appreciated once housing arrangements are made. In the meantime, monetary donations can be sent to EGELC, PO Box 68, Eagle Grove, IA 50533, or dropped off at the Eagle Grove Evangelical Lutheran Church.
