Hit Hard
In 2023 the Timber Industry experienced significant damage as the drought caused stress, triggered by a Pine Beatle outbreak, killing more than 12 million trees, throughout Mississippi. This was valued at more than $96 Million in lost timber, and will be felt for many years to come.

All 82 counties were declared primary disaster levels.

Heavenly Father, please make a way through the difficult circumstances in our lives. You parted the Red Sea in a miraculously way. You are still the same Lord, the same Waymaker as you have been.
Strengthen us to walk throughout the paths that you open up and help us to do mighty things with you and for you. Be glorified in our lives. In Jesus name I pray. Amen
