Hurricane Michael Update

A message from Presbyterian Disaster Assistance and the Presbytery of St. Augustine …

Hurricane Michael damageHurricane Michael was a catastrophic storm that caused severe damage for those in its path. Eyewitnesses describe the destruction as similar to a war zone. The Presbyterian Disaster Assistance Program (PDA) will be sending response teams to work with communities in the Presbytery of Florida (Florida Panhandle) and the Presbytery of Flint River (Southwest Georgia). Thousands of ready-to-eat meals are on their way, but it is still too early and too dangerous for churches to send work teams at this time. The damage will be assessed and the recovery efforts will be organized in the weeks and months to come. At this point donations to the PDA for emergency and on-going recovery efforts is the most helpful response in addition to your prayers.
