Missouri Net News [link removed] Puerto Rico Disaster Response
Hurricane Fiona made landfall in southwestern Puerto Rico on Sunday morning. The storm brought heavy rains and wind. The whole of the island remains without power. Currently, the Iglesia Metodista de Puerto Rico (IMPR) is preparing to respond once the storm has passed. Rehace, the non-profit organization of the IMPR, created systems in response to Hurricane Maria five years ago that remain in place. Right now, the IMPR will need funds to respond to the disaster (you may donate directly [link removed] here or send funds to the [link removed] Missouri Annual Conference). In the coming weeks, IMPR may ask for volunteers to help clean and rebuild affected areas. For updates, follow Rehace on Facebook at [link removed] ReHace IMPR or [link removed] this website. Congregations are asked to focus on the following mission and service efforts:
Pray. Pray for the people of affected areas and first responders and agencies managing damage assessment. Search [link removed] Discipleship Ministries for worship resources during times of natural disaster, including this [link removed] Communion liturgy appropriate for those celebrating communion.
Give. Visit [link removed] Rehace’s Donor Page or [link removed] Missouri Disaster Response Online Giving or [link removed] UMCOR US Disaster Response and Recovery.
