Flood Rescue at Mt Nebo Church During Severe Kimball Flood
Reverend Courtney K Winlace could not re enter Mt Nebo Missionary Baptist Church in the Norwood Addition to Kimball until Thursday afternoon. Randall Delpatch hauled Wallace through foot deep water in his pickup to safety as rising floodwaters forced evacuation during a Sunday service. Wallace, a four year Mt Nebo pastor from Bluefield, has helped lead relief efforts since the deluge that left Norwood Addition submerged and the high water at six feet. Frustration grows as cleanup continues in Kimball area.
