LOUISIANA/MISSISSIPPI(KTVE/KARD) — On Friday, Jan. 30, Samaritan’s Purse will deploy volunteer teams to hard-hit areas in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Tennessee that were affected by the winter storm.
Teams will begin work on Friday in Oxford, Mississippi; West Monroe, Louisiana; Corinth, Mississippi; and McNairy County, Tennessee, officials say. Samaritan’s Purse volunteers will be clearing debris, removing downed trees, and more.
