Disaster Relief Effort
The loss of life and property brought by Hurricane Helene is overwhelming. We have sent funds to two churches in communities that have been impacted, and we want to continue to be able to help those in need. We have set up a special Hurricane Helene Disaster Relief Fund for anyone who would like to contribute. Your donation can help ease the burden of people who may have lost everything.
