We are praying for our church family at this time and stand together as we recover from the devastation of Hurricane Florence. As the church, we also ask how we can show His love to our neighbors, community and city. There are many ways that we can help in this time of great need. 

PRAY

Join us in prayer. Prayer is a way we can all participate in our response to Florence; prayer for our church community, prayer for our neighbors, prayers for our city and state, prayers all those affected by the storm and all these responding to the call to help in the recovery efforts. Let us never forget the power of prayer to change situations and lives.

DONATE

You can either contact the organizations directly with donations:
