E-Alert from Lutheran Disaster Response

“I lift up my eyes to the hills—from where will my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.”
– Psalm 121:1-2

Dear friends,

The latest storm in a deadly hurricane season, Hurricane Michael, is threatening our neighbors with dangerous winds, heavy rainfall and storm surge. The storm made landfall with winds upwards of 150 miles per hour.

Your gifts ensure that our church will be able to provide help and hope for those whose homes have been devastated or who have been otherwise affected by Hurricane Michael.

Currently, Lutheran Disaster Response is monitoring Hurricane Michael and is coordinating its response with Lutheran Services Florida, the Florida-Bahamas Synod, as well as our partners and affiliates in other potentially impacted areas.

As a church, we’re ready to stand by our neighbors as they recover from this storm.

Please give to Lutheran Disaster Response today. Your gifts ensure that our church will be able to provide help and hope for those whose lives have been affected by Hurricane Michael.

Stay connected to the latest events and our response to this and other disasters through our Facebook page. Join us in prayer, and use this bulletin insert in your congregation to help spread the word.

With gratitude for your partnership,

Daniel Rift
