Prayers for the Perry, Ga. FFA pig show team

Please remember these kids in your prayers. The Perry Ga. FFA pig barn burned to the ground last night and all 58 of the show pigs were lost. It was a total loss of everything. The barn will be rebuilt and the community is behind the kids 100%. They have already raised $4,000.00 plus towards the new structure. The kids will be looking for more animals to raise. They have to have new animals registered by the 3rd of December to be eligible to compete this year. My granddaughter lost both of her pigs in this. Hopefully all the kids will be able to get new pigs for raising. Please remember them in your prayers because the kids were devastated.
 
prayers for the devastated kids, and also that they will recognize the love and caring of all those who pray for them and give to them. gobble
 
They think a heat lamp caused the fire. They have said that the new barn will have infra-red heaters to hopefully prevent this from happening again. Several pig breeders in the area have stepped up to offer the kids a chance to get a replacement animal. They have even had an offer from a group in N. Georgia to help erect the new barn. They are still scrambling to figure things out at the present time. Housing 58 pigs will be a challenge.
 
They should open a GoFundMe account, people contribute to much less worthy causes than theirs. Post on here if the do open one, so some of us can throw a few bucks at them.
 
So unfortunate.... heat lamps are sooo risky in a barn with dry bedding on the floor. I lost a brand new, small shed,
built for two pygmy goats. Insulated for the Michigan winter. first day I left a heat lamp on, they must
have knocked it down, poof no more shed ! The goats got out...
