ROAN MOUNTAIN, Tenn. (LBM) – The Carey Baptist Association laundry team recently wrapped up a short but fruitful trip to deliver a laundry trailer for use by members of First Baptist Church, Roan Mountain, Tennessee.

Team members Reggy Saxton and Tom Waites arrived on Oct. 5 to deliver a trailer equipped with five washers, five dryers and two generators and returned to Lake Charles the following evening. While in Roan Mountain, the team saw the church spreading Jesus’ love through distribution of meals, water, clothes and toys. Additionally, a medical team was on hand to offer care to residents, many whose homes were inundated by the floodwaters of Hurricane Helene.

“We witnessed the church of FBC Roan Mountain at its best, taking charge and sharing God’s love to the community,” Saxton told the Baptist Message. “The church members were managing the crisis like seasoned pros.”
