Disaster Relief Item Collection

Our church is sending Feeding Teams with Southern Baptist Disaster Relief this week to Gaffney, SC. We will also be deploying Chainsaw Teams of volunteers in the coming weeks and probably months to assist in recovery. While only those who have been trained and certified with SBC DR can serve in those capacities, we have a way that anyone and everyone can plug in.

We have a very trusted member of our church who has connections with a fire department in Cashiers, NC which is serving as a staging area for the surrounding area in the collection and distribution of much-needed items in the recovery effort.

This couple will be leaving on Thursday morning, October 3 at 7 am. Collection times are Tuesday, 9am-5pm, or Wednesday, 9am-6pm. Drop-off location is the Family Life Center at the back of our property at 100 S Forest Beach Drive.
