Emergency Response Teams & Volunteers In Mission Teams Needed for
Hurricane Response
Florida:
The Florida Annual Conference needs teams right away. All volunteers will be
accepted, regardless of ERT Training. Individuals and teams are encouraged to
register and should expect to be deployed in the southern part of the state.
Texas:
The Texas Annual Conference (Houston and North Gulf Cost) is very much in need
of volunteer help. In the last few weeks, teams have mucked out and gutted more
than 6000 homes, but they are still finding communities where the damage has
not been assessed.
Volunteers should be over age 18, Safe Sanctuaries certified, and at least
one member of the team should be ERT Trained.
Rio Texas:
The Rio Texas Conference (Corpus Christi and Southern Gulf Coast Areas) are
taking ERT’s for approximately another 4 weeks and are accepting reservations
for Long-Term Recovery teams after that. There are two different registration
links, so make sure you use the right one! Additionally, they are looking for
individuals who would be willing to volunteer for longer periods of time with site
management and volunteer coordination. Contact Eugene Hileman
(ashileman@riotexas.org) if you can help with this ministry.
Puerto Rico and US Virgin Islands
(US Territories):
This is still a government-controlled situation. They are in the emergency
relief phase. UMCOR is releasing grants to Puerto Rico quickly and talking
daily with the Bishop and other church leaders on the islands.
Contact
the pastor or Tom Taylor if interested.
Please send an email or
call with a message to Marla as to who may need to be in our community of
prayer and for announcements. It is needed for the bulletin by Wednesday
evening. Thank you.
