St Mark / Red Cross Emergency Shelter "Our Calling"


"By faith Noah, being warned by God of things not yet seen, moved with fear, he prepared an ark for the saving of his house".
(Hebrews 11:7) 

It is time to remind our St Mark congregation about our 'calling' partnering with the American Red Cross to operate in dire emergencies as a shelter following a disaster.  It is critical to continue to build and practice our role as a shelter so 'when called' we are ready to serve those displaced citizens during disasters!

A couple of years ago, the St Mark Disaster Shelter Manager handed out a reference card titled, "St Mark Presbyterian Church Quick Family Reference Guide For Emergencies" to be completed and turned in to the shelter manager; kept on file for when and/or if  St Mark needs accountability of the congregation.  It is time to update that information and I hope each of you would be willing to do so.  Please keep on the look-out for these 'emergency contact cards' within the next couple of weeks.
