Helping Those Affected By Hurricanes

Tuesday, October 31, 2017

Presbyterian Disaster Assistance reports that people have given more than $3 million dollars and more than 400 churches have expressed an interest in sending work teams to Texas, Florida or Puerto Rico. First Pres collected and shipped 64 "Clean Up Buckets" to assist victims and the Mission Committee expresses gratitude for this response! Hurricane Maria ravaged Puerto Rico and PDA assessment is ongoing. Years of recovery lie ahead and your commitment will help PDA extend the hands of Christ toward long-term rebuilding after three hurricanes.

To support recovery efforts, you may send checks directly to the church, made out to First Presbyterian Church Ann Arbor with “PDA: Harvey,” “PDA Irma” or “PDA Maria” in the memo line. First Pres is gathering a volunteer work team; contact Rev. Sanderford at jsanderford@firstpresbyterian.org for more information. You may also donate directly to PDA online at https://pma.pcusa.org/donate/make-a-gift/gift-info/DR000169/.
