Grateful to Alabama Disaster Relief volunteers

Alabama Baptist Disaster Relief

Alabama Baptist Disaster Relief volunteers have risen to the occasion to serve those affected by recent floods in Missouri and Arkansas.

Chilton and Morgan Baptist associations sent teams to Missouri in May. And West Cullman and Tuskegee-Lee Baptist associations were serving in Arkansas at press time.

Three other teams were prepared to assist. But because of the efforts of many volunteers, Missouri or Arkansas were able to see a significant reduction in the jobs to be completed.

That means Baldwin, Etowah and Colbert-Lauderdale Baptist associations had teams ready to go but were no longer needed. One can imagine the disappointment for them.

Alabama Baptists are grateful for these volunteers and all who are committed to providing hope and help in Jesus’ name.
