								<p>Members of Thomas Road Baptist Church along with a few other local churches and organizations packed up and headed down to Houston to help with the rebuild process. </p>
															<p>Their main mission?  "We are there to be the hands and feet of Jesus. We are doing what God has called us to do and to share his love and truth with those in need," explained Monica Tillas, a TRBC church member.</p>
																							<p>During their week long effort, the group helped families still struggling to get back on their feet. "Our mission down there was to feed people and to muck out houses," said Ernie Rogers, the coordinator for TRBC's disaster relief. They fed hundreds of hungry mouths and gutted out several houses by cleaning out debris and spraying down for mold.</p>
																							<p>Thomas Road Baptist Church has also helped to pack more than 30 loads of disaster relief items for hurricane ravaged areas; such as Jacksonville and the Florida Keys.</p>
