HOW TO HELP:

The PSE Diaconal Committee and OPC Committte on Diaconal Ministries have received a number of questions on how people can assist with cleanup efforts on the coast. Our committees and the local church officers are actively working on a plan for the coming months, and we hope to have more answers by the end of the week. 

PRAYER:

• Please continue to pray for the safety of the DRC and all who are assisting in clean up
• Pray for those who evacuated as they make plans for returning home
• Pray for those whose homes were flooded and have had many of their worldly possessions destroyed
• Pray for the witness of our churches and saints to their neighbors during this time of crisis
• Pray that our churches will be able to meet this Lord’s Day to worship our great God.
