The City of Irving has asked IBC to care for self-evacuated residents from Harvey-affected areas, and so we’re going to do all we can to help. In the next days, weeks, and perhaps even months, we’re going to assist these families with food, housing, and other needs.   Let’s all come together to support this effort through giving, serving, and prayer. Scroll down to find out how you can help.</p></header></div><style>

They will need to find jobs, homes, sign-up kids for school, and more.

It’s in these moments that we are invited to pray. We hope you will join us in praying for all those affected by this tragedy that they would find peace and hope during this season. For those who lost their homes to be able to rebuild. For those who lost loved ones that they would be comforted in their mourning. For those who lost everything they own, that they would know that God is our provider.&nbsp;<br></p></article></section></main></main></div><footer class="secondary-footer grad-blue"><div class="inner-bounds clearfix"><div class="content"><h3>Join our mailing list</h3><p>Our weekly email newsletter is how we let you know what’s happening, what’s new, and what’s next at IBC.</p></div><div class="split-form newsletter-form"><form action="//irvingbible.us2.list-manage.com/subscribe/post?u=59deab98cab5bcf7247ff3996&amp;id=aa7166ebe1" name="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" method="post" id="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" class="validate" target="_blank" novalidate><input type="text" value="" name="EMAIL" class="required email email-field" id="mce-EMAIL"><div id="mce-responses" class="clear"><div class="response" id="mce-error-response" style="display:none"></div><div class="response" id="mce-success-response" style="display:none"></div></div><!-- real people should not fill this in and expect good things - do not remove this or risk form bot signups--><div style="position: absolute; left: -5000px;" aria-hidden="true"><input type="text" name="b_59deab98cab5bcf7247ff3996_d01c36d400" tabindex="-1" value=""></div><input type="submit" name="subscribe" id="mc-embedded-subscribe" class="button small fill-black send-button"></form></div></div></footer><footer id="site-footer" role="banner"><div class="inner-bounds"><div class="main-content clearfix"><div class="footer-col"><h3 class="title">Irving Bible Church</h3><div class="hcard" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/PostalAddress"><span class="line"><span itemprop="streetAddress">2435 Kinwest Pkwy</span></span><span class="line"><span itemprop="addressLocality">Irving</span>, <span itemprop="addressRegion">TX </span><span itemprop="postalCode">75063</span></span><span class="line"><span itemprop="phone"><a href="tel:972-560-4600">972-560-4600</a></span></span></div><a href="http://www.irvingbible.org/contact" class="white button">Contact Us</a></div><div class="footer-col"><h3 class="title">Follow Us</h3><ul class="social-list"><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/irvingbiblechurch/" class="icon-cross-7"><span class="show-for-sr">Instagram</span></a></li><li><a href="https://twitter.com/ibcvoice" class="icon-twitter"><span class="show-for-sr">Twitter</span></a></li><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/irvingbible" class="icon-facebook-squared"><span class="show-for-sr">Facebook</span></a></li><li><a href="https://vimeo.com/ibcvoice" class="icon-vimeo"><span class="show-for-sr">Vimeo</span></a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/IBCvoice" class="icon-youtube-play"><span class="show-for-sr">Youtube</span></a></li></ul></div><div class="footer-col"><h3 class="title">General Info</h3><p><strong>Sunday Service Times</strong><br>
