Noonday Association is partnering with Samaritan's Purse and West Ridge Church to have a coordinated response to the Flood Relief in the NW Atlanta.
West Ridge Church will be hosting Samaritan's Purse Disaster Relief Team beginning tomorrow. Sam’s Purse will be bringing a fifty-three foot trailer and four other trailers full of tools and gear to help serve those from our community cleaning up from the flood.
Samaritan's Purse Teams will canvass some of the hardest hit areas beginning tomorrow afternoon. They will assess every project before volunteers go out, and will help organize volunteers and teams. Churches with volunteer teams are asked to enlist team leaders to supervise the team and have the team leader contact Samaritan’s Purse at 678-202-5974 for assignment.
Sam's Purse will give the contact information of everyone served. If they are not already connected to a church we hope to connect them to one of our congregations one way or another.
Paul Richardson of West Ridge contacted an organization called Gleaning for the World and they are sending 3500 blankets, 300 pairs of shoes and 4 pallets of water. West Ridge will distribute some of this through the Red Cross but if churches need these items to distribute they are welcome to them. It will be first come, first serve.
Here is a summary of the partnership with Samaritan's Purse with phone numbers and e-mail for how your church can get involved; also on Paul Richardson's blog at www.paulrichardsononline.com.
