The community has 269 residences and an RV area. Most of the residents are retired pastors and missionaries. Hurricane Milton caused about 2-5 feet of water incursion in about 170 residences.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have had work teams from many local churches, colleges, and individuals, as well as out-of-town work teams from many other states, as far away as Washington state.<\/p>\n\n\n

We could still use as much manpower as possible, and we have a benevolence fund established for contributions, https:\/\/llfmc.org<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
