Giving for Hurricane Relief

Here is how things are shaping up regarding counsel about making donations to hurricane relief causes. There are two ministries that we have close ties with and can refer you to. They are:

Mission to North America (MNA), 1700 N. Brown Rd., #101, Lawrenceville, GA 30043, or by credit card at http://www.pca-mna.org/ (designate “Hurricane Relief”).

World Relief, P.O. Box 868, Baltimore, MD 21202 (designate “Hurricane Katrina Fund”); toll free at 800.535.LIFE (5433); or online at www.worldrelief.com.

You may give to Tenth, designating "Hurricane Relief" on the memo line. We will most likely channel those gifts to MNA. You may want to wait a week or two to send anything. In the days to come, we will learn more and may be in a better position to send funds to meet specific needs.

Meanwhile, though you should naturally want to give to this cause, please do not forget your church and the ministries you are already supporting. CCA, Harvest, Alpha, and other ministries are likely to take a hit in support at a time when they are in financial need. Please give for hurricane relief, but give sacrificially beyond what you are already giving for God's kingdom.

Expect an insert on September 10 giving information about the ministry/projects we will channel money to. But before then, you will know anything we know by coming to this site. Again, help get the word out to the congregation to check out this blogsite for the latest news on the hurricane aftermath and Tenth's involvement.
