Churches of Christ Disaster Response Team

We at Northeast are happy to be supporting a great ministry in the "Churches of Christ Disaster Response Team". Mark and Laura Cremeans are the ministry leaders. They go to spots in the United States where disasters (floods, tornados, fires, hurricanes etc...) have devastated communities and offer help and aid to the victims. They base their operation out of Churches of Christ in those communities offering some great opportunities for those churches to build a positive identity in communities that are suffering. I plan to go with a small group to Cedar Rapids, Iowa next week to help families put their homes and lives together again after recent flooding. I look forward to telling you how it goes when I get back. Be praying for our travel and our opportunities there.
You can support this effort too through donations and prayer. You could also make plans to join us if you can. Let me know!
