What do we feel when we hear the phrase, “the Oklahoma standard,” in times of crisis? The Oklahoma Region, in conjunction with Week of Compassion, has provided $8,750 in Disaster Relief for congregations and families in the Region this year.
A total of $4,000 was given for Fire Recovery early in the year when several Oklahoma families lost their homes to fires.
Since May, $4,750 has been provided for Storm Recovery. Two Oklahoma Congregations experienced damage to their church buildings, and an Oklahoma family’s home was also damaged during storms.
A gift was sent to tornado-damaged Disciples churches in St. Louis, MO, from part of the offering at our Called Regional Assembly.
First Christian Church, Healdton, and their youth group made a special donation to our neighbors in Texas, directed for relief efforts after the Guadalupe River flash floods.
Thank you for helping your neighbors in your community and through the relief work of the Region and the Week of Compassion.
