Hurricane Sally Response

As Hurricane Sally continues to dump wind and rain on the Gulf Coast, the FWB Disaster Response Team is making plans to respond. We hope to organize and travel to the Pensacola area the first of next week to assist with clean-up. Please consider going or helping financially. We are also working to provide supplies to the Louisiana area that was hit by the last hurricane. To provide financial help, send donations to Master's Men DRT, PO Box 5002, Antioch, TN 37011, or donate online at fwbmastersmen.org. We have partners is GA and FL that will provide and distribute supplies, but we need to help provide funds. Please pray about what you can do!
