It is people like Freda, who give of themselves, despite their own set-backs. Or Derek who worked all day and in a moment’s notice, answered an\u00a0email, and then drove all night to deploy. Or Tony and Margie who saw a need, borrowed a truck, and drove for three days to get urgent resources\u00a0to hurricane victims in Florida.<\/p>\n

\nIf you pour yourself out for the hungry and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in the darkness and your gloom be as the\u00a0noonday.<\/p>\n
Titus 3:14
\nAnd let our people learn to devote themselves to good works, so as to help cases of urgent need, and not be unfruitful.<\/p>\n
