Wedding Bells & Harvey Response

Christ Chapel was spared the floods of Harvey.  This night a sweet couple’s Wedding plans will go on!  With so much pain and loss from Harvey, a celebration of eternal love will bring the much needed gift of joy.

After Hurricane Ike flooded Christ Chapel 9 years ago, it became a shelter to house the volunteers who came to help our people rebuild their lives on the Island for over 2 years.   We are now joining the efforts of churches across Galveston who are uniting to help our devistated neighbors.  If you need help, or want to help others, please go to Facebook@ChristTogetherGalveston for more information.

Today is a big day because…

Today the shower house leaves to go back to New Orleans.  The showers arrived one week after Hurricane Ike ravaged our island and our lives.  The EFCA Crisis Response Team brought them from New Orleans after use during Katrina rebuild.  The Chapel and Whitehouse sheltered Volunteers who came to help with the clean-up and rebuild of Galveston for over 2 years.  The showers were here for the Volunteers.  They served all those who came to help us but now, they are no longer needed.  The Chapel and Whitehouse say goodbye to a friend. 

Thank you to the EFCA Crisis Response Team & the thousands of Volunteers from all over the U.S. & Canada for coming to our side when we were devastated.  You are gone now but you will never ever be forgotton.
