Responding to This Weekend’s Storms

Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Please join us in praying for the communities in the paths of the storms last evening, and especially for those families who experienced the death of family members. We also continue to pray for survivors reliving the trauma of past tornadoes.

District superintendents and disaster response teams are in communication with our impacted churches and communities. We are aware of significant facility damage to Fellowship UMC in Clarksville and to Bellshire UMC in northern Nashville.

At this time, it is important for volunteers to not deploy and wait for further instruction from first responders. The TWK Disaster Response Team is in communication with other Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (VOAD) about how best to respond to community needs.

More information will follow about how you may help. In the meantime, please prayerfully consider supporting the TWKUMC disaster response efforts by donating online or by sending a check: https://twkumc.org/donate/

In Christ,

Rev. Robert Craig, Disaster Response Coordinator 
Tennessee-Western Kentucky Conference
