DANVILLE, Va. (WFXR)—God’s Pit Crew volunteers were recently redeployed to Rolling Fork, Mississippi to build and finish a home for a family after a tornado ripped through their town in March 2023.

Following the tornado, Pastor Britt Williamson was busy helping others reconstruct their lives in the Rolling Fork community. He and other community members founded Rolling Fork Rising, a non-profit organization that builds affordable homes for former renters to purchase since many were stranded after the storm. However, he and his family were facing the same situation due to extreme amounts of mold.

“The parsonage was condemned and everything we owned we had to leave behind,” told Williamson.  “God’s Pit Crew contacted us last year and told us they wanted to build us a new home, and we just couldn’t believe it.”

God’s Pit Crew staff and volunteers left Danville on April 2 and traveled to Mississippi with materials needed to rebuild and fully furnished home for the Williamson family. On April 15, the ministry welcomed Pastor Williamson and his family into their brand-new home.

This was the third rebuild project to take place in Rolling Fork and is the first home rebuild of the year by God’s Pit Crew.
