A combination of widespread power outages, thunderstorm damage and dangerous summer heat left thousands of Northeast Texas residents without access to basic necessities last week. Thankfully, Northeast Texas Community College was able to assist a few of them by providing a safe, cool place to stay.

Thirteen families and representatives from the Texas A&M Forest Service disaster response team found a temporary home in NTCC’s dormitories over the weekend and into this week.

It is officially summer at Northeast Texas Community College and the campus is buzzing with activity. Over the next few weeks, we will highlight some of the special programs taking place at NTCC this summer. This week’s Summer Spotlight feature is Summer Success!

There were only two priests to cover 90,000 square miles of territory.  Missionaries who tried to slip through from the outside were threatened, robbed, and arrested.
