Each month of 2020 seems to bring a new crisis to mind. So far we have experienced an ongoing pandemic, riots and protests nationwide, rivers flooding in the north, fires raging in the west, and we are still right in the heart of one of the most active hurricane seasons ever. Altogether the picture can be overwhelming to consider, and it begs the question, “Where are you, God?”

At ReachGlobal Crisis Response we believe that every crisis is a new mission field, so we are seeing a year of incredible opportunity for outreach. COVID-19 has challenged and changed some of our ministry model, but we have not stopped proclaiming the hope of the Gospel to people impacted by crises. And the truth is that with so much going on this year, we need your help.

Join Us in the Harvest Field:

Send a small team to serve – We currently have several sites still taking small teams. Our sites are taking precautions to protect against COVID-19, but we are still partnering with churches in Louisiana, Texas, and North Carolina to reach out into their communities with help and hope. Go to our website or email respond@efca.org for more info.

Trauma Care Training for your church – We can tailor this training to a specific crisis impacting your community, like COVID-19 or a fire, or we offer a more general training. This gives your church members tools to be able to come alongside people who are struggling to process a crisis, and to meet some of the emotional needs after a crisis.

Prepare Training for your church – This year more than ever we have seen that crises can affect anyone. Contact us at crisisresponse@efca.org to set up a training time to talk through how your church can respond to a crisis in your own community.

Give to ReachGlobal Crisis Response – In a new crisis it takes time to set up and start receiving donations. By giving to ReachGlobal Crisis Response we can use general funds to be able to launch into assessing and responding immediately.
