Disaster Relief Team Update, November 16th

Yesterday Linda Kolk, Nicole Rodriguez and Sherrill Miller served lunch to the SBC Disaster Relief team and Red Cross workers as the DR team needed “all hands on deck” to prepare the 14,800 meals requested of them. As Dave Karr, the “blue cap” (leader) of the Oklahoma team serving out of NMBC shared with us last Sunday, "the goal of the ministry of SBC Disaster Relief is simply to be the hands and feet of Jesus.”

Every day (sometimes every hour) I hear stories of lives being touched both physically and spiritually through the ministry of the Disaster Relief team. I thank God for these men and women living on-mission for Jesus. Below is a video of the North Carolina DR team’s operation out of Rutgers University. This will give you an inside view of the mission taking place at NMBC and at locations throughout the Northeast.
