Alabama Disaster Relief Response

Over the weekend, the chainsaw/clean-up team and the feeding unit team were both activated to help with the Alabama tornado response. The teams are made up of folks from across Marion County that have been trained through the Florida Baptist Disaster Relief organization.

The feeding unit is in Double Springs, AL. The chainsaw/clean-up team is in Hackleburg, AL, about 55 miles outside of Jasper where the team is being housed. Hackleburg has a population of about 1500 people and they lost 30 people in the tornado. Please pray for these communities and for the men and women that have responded!

Kevin will blog when he has time and we will try to post photos as we get them.
