Kyle – The Journey Methodist Church is coming together to help 90 year old veteran Chuck Sherwood and his 76 year old wife Sherry Sherwood build a new home on their property. The new home is being built out of a prefabricated shell, with new amenities being added by volunteers and paid for by donors.
The project was headed by Pastor Kenneth J. Polk, who helped direct the effort after being alerted by Meals On Wheels, an organization dedicated to addressing senior isolation and hunger. The group contacted them, hoping that they could do something to help the Sherwoods. Once discovering the state of their home, and after failed attempts to repair the home, followed by the disastrous impact of COVID-19 and the winter freeze, the church resolved to help them as best they can, going as far as Polk himself delivering water to the Sherwoods.
