Thanks to a donation from Pinedale Baptist Church, Montgomery, in Montgomery Baptist Association, one state shower unit has become a rolling advertisement for Alabama Baptist disaster relief. There was enough money to pay for printing and affixing large disaster relief photos to both sides of the trailer, which was donated in 2009 by First Baptist Church, Montgomery. It contains men’s/women’s shower facilities and a washer/dryer and is used in disaster relief settings and long-term rebuilding areas. Inspecting the trailer before it was sent out are (left) Mel Johnson, disaster relief strategist for the Alabama Baptist State Board of Missions (SBOM); Charleen Hobbs, SBOM communications services ministry assistant and member of Pinedale Baptist; and Jesse Conte, SBOM communications associate and graphic artist, who designed the artwork.
