Assessments

The second home was Pastor Josue Jesomour’s. He has 3 daughters and pastors a Baptist church that has two services with about 600 people attending each services. His home is of similar construction and with a little more, but similar, damage. In both of these homes we could see where the slab had just slid across the walls some.

The third home was Pastor Tulus Semiva’s. This is one of the larger homes that we have visited. It is two stories, but has sustained serious damage. This is one that I believe needs to be torn down and completely replaced. How do you tell a family this? Please keep these people (and many more like them) in your thoughts and prayers as we try to come up with solutions for their dilemmas.
