TENNESSEE BAPTIST DISASTER RELIEF RESPONDS TO 18 EVENTS

Baptist and Reflector

MOUNT JULIET — Tennessee Baptist Disaster Relief volunteers responded to 18 events in Tennessee, throughout the United States and in different locations outside the U.S. in 2019, according to Wes Jones, disaster relief specialist for the Tennessee Baptist Mission Board.

Those responses do not include a number of responses done locally by DR volunteers, he added.

Volunteers have “done a great job of sharing their faith” as they have responded, Jones said. He noted there were six professions of faith recorded in one day by a team in Huffman, Texas. “Praise God,” he said.

Volunteers are needed to serve in 2020 in the Bahamas in response to damage caused by Hurricane Dorian last October. Experienced roofing and framing volunteers are needed and teams will have to provide for their own experiences. If interested in more information, contact Jones at [email protected] or 712-253-4408.
