What Can You Do?

N TX Wildfire Volunteers

We welcome individuals, churches and presbyteries who wish to join in relief efforts. Through these efforts we hope to share the love of Christ by meeting victims’ immediate needs as well as helping to rebuild their lives.

Perhaps God is calling you to be part of His response to people in their time of need.  With the frequency of major disasters and the current threat of terrorist activities, there has never been a better time for us to show God’s love and mercy as now. There are a number of things you can do:

Prayer Support

  • Pray that God’s Kingdom will be extended through this work.
  • Pray for prayer supporters and financial supporters committed to disaster response. This ministry is funded solely by designated gifts to MNA.
  • Pray for the development of good relationships with churches and presbyteries who will benefit from this ministry in the coming years of work.
  • Pray for God’s help and sustaining presence for the victims of disasters.

Financial Support

Perhaps you cannot participate by volunteering yourself and maybe you’d like give of your time and your treasure.  Prayerfully consider participating with us through your financial support. Money contributed is tax deductible. You can contribute by sending checks to “Mission to North America” and putting “Rick Lenz” or “Mark Becker” in the memo line on your check. Mail to Presbyterian Church in America, Mission to North America, P.O. Box 890233, Charlotte NC 28289 and designate that it is for my support. You may also contribute online by

texting MNA 1866 for Mark to 76959 or go to HTTPS://give.pcamna.org/to/1866/ for Mark

texting  MNA 1340 to 76959 or HTPPS://give.pcamna.org/to/1340/ for Rick

Volunteer

Maybe you would like to be the “boots on the ground” and be part of the team cleaning up or rebuilding after a disaster. Disasters provide opportunities to serve your neighbors in the United States, sharing both the declaration and demonstration of the love of God in Christ Jesus. To learn more about short-term mission trips, volunteer on the MNA Disaster Response Website. We are also available to meet with church and presbytery leaders to discuss disaster response ministry involvement and to help with disaster preparation.
