Midwest Flooding

 

Many of you have done such an amazing work for the LORD in past disasters by partnering with DRT to help those in need and we thank our GOD for you!

Once again, we come to you with the news of flooding in the Midwest. Many of our brothers and sisters have been affected by these floods. TENS OF THOUSANDS of people are out of their homes and MANY have no flood insurance.

We appeal to you today to PLEASE once again, partner with DRT to reach out to our Christian brothers and sisters in need as well as helping them reach out to their communities through disaster relief.

DRT brings to the disaster areas trained coordinators to help the local congregations set up a relief effort. DRT provides tool trailers, shower trailer, mobile kitchen as well as RV's for use by volunteers. Some of the ways DRT helps congregations in disaster areas reach out to their communities is by providing home cooked meals, basic necessities, volunteer labor and helping provide building material for those without insurance. DRT's main goal is to build relationships with those being assisted and to be able to reach out to them through example and by teaching the Good News of our LOVING LORD AND SAVIOR.

*****Due to so many disasters this year as well as last year, DRT's funding is down considerably. Your donations are URGENTLY needed to help with transportation of equipment as well as the above services and goods that DRT provides in disaster areas.

Please watch our website for opportunities to volunteer and please keep those affected by these disasters and those ministering to them in your prayers.

Donations can be made online through our website:
