As Hope Force International [HFI] currently serves those who have been devastated by floodwaters in Louisiana, we are reminded once again that it is YOU – the HFI Reservist – who makes our deployments possible.
We are making a final appeal for help in the post-flood recovery phase in Louisiana for anytime between now and September 18. The unmet need is substantial and our ability to respond is limited by available manpower. Come join us – and bring trusted friends! Email HERE to join.
We are excited about the upcoming season of back-to-back HFI Reservist trainings held across North America!
We look forward to welcoming our new HFI Reservists into our Hope Force family in the next few months, and we would also want to invite you to join us for a refresher course! Over the last two years, we've added some new teaching to our training curriculum and we think that you will be challenged and inspired by what Dr. Kevin Ellers has to share.
Topics covered:
- Identity in Christ for the disaster responder - Dan Sneed
- Foundations of emotional & spiritual care (ESC) - Dr. Kevin Ellers (Disaster Services Coordinator, Central Territory, The Salvation Army, USA)
- Maintaining healthy & cohesive relationships in ministry - Dean Sherman
