By Our Love (Song by Christy Nockels)

The wildfire assistance mission teams are honored to share this video compilation of photos from the opportunities we had to serve in Estes Park, Fort Collins and Colorado Springs.  We praise the Lord for the work He did on our hearts through this outreach.


Colorado Springs Team

Our final service day was scheduled to help the victims of the Colorado Springs wildfire.  The team that day was made up of the following people:  Tyler Babb, James & Shauna Boyce, Diana & Michael Durrill, Becca Fleming, Paola Gonzalez-Pacheco, Stefan McDaniel, Kenny Post, David & Julie Rudie, and Erik Zertuche.














Fort Collins Wildfire Teams

A large group of people went up to Fort Collins and were split into two groups to work on two different homes.  The first group was made up of: Jason Ammon, Steve Fensler, Paul & Jill Ice, Adam & Rebekah Johnson, Heidi & Stefan McDaniel, and Tori Schneider.








The second group, which worked on Gary & Martha's home, included:  James & Shauna Boyce, Mike & Michael Durrill, BJ & Becca Fleming, Chris & Gannon Holder, their boys CJ & Joey and their cousin, Zachary.  CJ and Michael found a collection of rings, the most precious being Gary & Martha's wedding rings.











Estes Park Wildfire Team

On our first scheduled day of service most of the projects had been called off due to heavy rains in the area.  Lysiane Bashford & Diana Durrill were able to still join a small group of men & women from the area to help a family in Estes Park begin the process of sifting through the ashes of their home.







Colorado Wildfire Assistance

Valley Community Church members had the incredible opportunity to come alongside victims of the 2012 Colorado wildfires and serve them as they begin the process of rebuilding.

Samaritan's Purse International's relief programs provide desperately needed assistance to victims of natural disaster, war, disease and famine.  It is a nondenominational evangelical Christian organization and we were honored and humbled to partner with them in this ministry to Colorado families.
