Help Our Friends Get Back on Their Feet After the Eaton Fire

Donation protected
Let’s Rally Around Thaddeus, Alpha, Imani, and Their Grandma! ❤️

Our dear friends Thaddeus, his grandma, Alpha, and Imani have lost their home—and everything inside it—due to the Eaton Fire. This wasn’t just any house; it was a home that carried generations of love and memories. It was the very first home Thaddeus’ grandmother owned, and over the years, she raised her own children there. More recently, it’s been a safe haven where she’s lovingly raised her grandson and anybody else that needed a place to stay.

This family has poured their hearts into their community and their church. Many of you know that Alpha, Imani, and Thaddeus have faithfully served in their church for years—whether it’s leading worship, helping with youth groups, or quietly stepping in to serve wherever there’s a need. They are the embodiment of kindness and humility, always putting others before themselves and spreading joy wherever they go.

But now, they need us.

The fire took everything. The family had to evacuate with little notice, and they were unable to save much of what they had. In addition to rebuilding their home, they’re now facing the challenge of replacing life essentials—clothes, food, and furniture—while also needing to replace important tools for their careers, including self-tape equipment, music gear, and film equipment. Even more heartbreaking, they’ve lost irreplaceable keepsakes and family mementos that carry deep sentimental value.

If you’ve ever met these three men, you know they’re the kind of people who radiate light. They lift others up without expecting anything in return. And now, it’s our turn to lift them up.

We’re believing in God’s provision and trusting that He will bring beauty from ashes. While no donation can replace the memories lost, we’re hoping to help ease the burden of starting over. Any amount—big or small—will make a difference. Everything donated will go directly toward rebuilding their lives: from basic necessities like clothes and food to new beds for when they find a new place to call home.

Let’s surround them with love, generosity, and prayers as they navigate this incredibly difficult season. We can’t wait to see how God shows up and moves in their lives through the kindness of others.

Thank you for considering supporting this beautiful family. Your love, prayers, and contributions mean more than words can express.
