The Redeemer deacons are organizing our efforts to provide help and supplies for those responding to the needs following Hurricane Ian in Florida. Individual parishioners have taken steps to make donations and prepare to travel to the Ft. Myers area to provide relief from the aftermath of Ian. The deacons will make a donation from the Deacons’ Fund to assist Pastor Byron West and All Souls PCA.
In addition, the deacons request that parishioners bring materials and supplies to Redeemer this Sunday, October 16. We will deliver the supplies to Byron West as he prepares to lead a trip beginning this Wednesday, October 19. We recognize the short notice, but we hope everyone will appreciate the urgency.
Below is a list of supplies Byron has asked for:
*Bolded items are essential
· AIR MATTRESSES with manual pumps
