An update from Week of Compassion:

Hurricane Michael made landfall around 12:30CDT 10/10/2018 as an extremely strong Category 4 storm near Mexico Beach, Florida. The storm, which has produced sustained winds of 155 mph, is the strongest on record to hit the Florida Panhandle. Week of Compassion is in touch with our congregational, Regional, and ecumenical partners.

We will continue monitoring this storm’s impact and stand ready to assist with solidarity grants for Disciples churches and families as may be needed, along with other relief through our partners in affected areas.

Please keep all those in the path of this storm in your prayers, along with those first-responders who are offering care and protection to others through the storm.
