The United Methodist Church has scheduled volunteer disaster training during 2015. “We are responding to God’s call to care for our neighbors,” said Cathy Earl, executive secretary for U.S. Disaster Response for the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR). “To do that—and do it well–it’s best to get information and understanding to be prepared to respond in the most meaningful way.” Early Response Teams; CARE Teams; Long-term disaster recovery committees; Volunteer home repair teams; Mission Team leaders…are you called to serve in one of these groups?
