First Church of the Nazarene

We have recently compiled an equipped team of trained men
and women that has come together for one purpose: "To make
a difference for Jesus Christ in Disaster Response." We are
willing to sacrifice our time and effort to see this goal
accomplished so that we can make an impact for the Church
of the Nazarene and for the Kingdom of God.

NAZARENE DISASTER RESPONSE (NDR). A denominationally
supported network of disaster volunteers, assisted by
trained district, regional, and national leaders who
cooperate with other national, state and local agencies
to respond to victims of natural and human-made disaster.

PRESENT NEEDS

TARPS are being supplied by FEMA and some governmental funds
will assist in other expenses.

Clean-up is being completed by area residents and the city of
Enterprise as well as volunteer assistance.

There are many trees that need to be cut and removed from the
neighborhood, but they can only be removed my professionals
due to the location and size of many trees still standing.
Equipment such as lifts, Bob Cats, and tree climbing equipment
are needed.

THERE IS A NEED FOR TEAMS THAT HAVE EXPERTISE IN TREE REMOVAL
AND HAVE THEIR OWN EQUIPMENT SUCH AS CHAINSAWS, TREE CLIMBING
EQUIPMENT, AND A BOB CAT. Contact Mark Berry for more information
at 334-702-7305 or 792-6974. Leave a message on the answering
machine if I am not available.

Other community homes have been hit as well; therefore, we
will assist in the neighborhood as we ask and are invited.

Organizations Active in Disaster). They are stationed adjacent
