The need is great and diverse when people face a traumatic, life-changing event. Our gracious God provides in miraculous ways.
The ministry of Disaster Relief is the bridge to individuals who need renewed hope, help, and healing. These volunteers are trained and ready to respond to any type of natural disaster that may arise. When a crisis occurs, a call out for deployment is posted, volunteers make a commitment to serve, and Christ’s love (charity) is revealed.
When they pray, give and go
Southern Baptist Convention members truly are part of the Disaster Relief team when they pray, give and go.
When Christians pray, it directly impacts those who have suffered loss, and for the volunteers who are helping those who are hurting. The generous giving of donors provides financial support that allows volunteers to serve in the disaster area. When donors give, they are an integral part of the DR team. Volunteers in the field are grateful for sacrificial giving that allows them to go and be the hands and feet of Jesus at the disaster site.
