Praying For A Local Family's Loss

Prayer Request: Since 1962, two generations of the Ruiter family have farmed Black Rapids Dairy Farm. Throughout that time they have been a staple in the community.

On Friday, September 8 their livelihood was destroyed by a devastating fire. Although the family has insurance, sadly the damage goes far beyond what is insurable. Insurance will not provide enough to cover the massive loss and to rebuild their lives. The Ruiters are members of the St. Monica Parish in Ottawa and are active members of the community. They are known as a family that is the first to step forward and help. “As an Ottawa Food Bank employee, I have seen Peter's kindness and generosity first hand. It breaks my heart to see such devastation come to such a great person."

Please join us in praying for their loss and what comes next as they begin to rebuild. We are stronger together.
