Disaster relief center construction under way

The Alabama Baptist Disaster Relief Center is taking shape on property in Prattville. The 14,000-square-foot facility will be used to house disaster relief equipment and will eventually serve as a site for disaster relief training, deployment and staging. 

Disaster relief personnel like Charlie Winsett, a member of Eastern Hills Church, Montgomery Association, are providing the bulk of the volunteer work on the building. After plumbing is stubbed and the foundation is poured, the building itself will be constructed in July with an anticipated completion date this fall. Responding to disasters remains the first priority for the volunteers, so if volunteers are deployed the schedule may change.
