“James Vernon Cart Jr., who pastored First Baptist Church of Iota, La., in Acadia Parish, died early Aug. 27 when a tree fell on his home around 2 a.m. as he slept. Bert Langley, director of missions with the Acadia Baptist Association, said the 68-year-old had gone to bed ahead of his wife, who remained in the living room with a grandchild who was visiting.
Bruce Baker, director of missions with the Carey Baptist Association in Lake Charles, said Hurricane Laura “severely damaged” about 10 churches, 15 to 20 have “moderate” damage, and a few others have minor damage, including churches in Lake Charles, Sulfur, Benton, Cameron, Hackberry, Moss Bluff and West Lake.”
