Disaster Relief

The recent southern storms have wreaked havoc and destroyed so much for so many people. We want to provide relief and care for those who are suffering and help restore what has been torn down. This will be a multi-month, multi-phase effort, and we will stay connected to ministry partners in the affected areas to learn of the best ways we can be of support. Right now, here are the ways that Mountain people can join the relief efforts.
