Hurricane Debby Update  August 7, 2024

Hurricane Debby, now Tropical Storm Debby, has impacted the Southeast United States over the past few days. North Carolina has already experienced significant rainfall and there is more rain and wind on the way. At this time we do not know exactly how we will respond, but we believe that there will be significant flooding and significant needs due to Debby.

We are watching to determine where the greatest needs will be and we are preparing our equipment and volunteers as well as our eastern North Carolina mission camps and rebuild centers in Lumberton, Red Springs, Rose Hill and New Bern so that we are ready to respond. Also, we have been asked and we are preparing to send a feeding and shower/laundry units and volunteers to serve at an evacuation shelter. Please pray for people who are affected by Debby as well as our volunteers who are going to serve them in Jesus’ name.  

IF YOU ARE wanting to respond to recovery needs please complete the volunteer form at https://baptistsonmission.org/Mission-Projects/By-Mission-Type/Disaster-Relief/Hurricane-Debby/Get-Involved. Once we have more information we will send you an email with that information.

If you want to respond and you are trained in Disaster Relief (EXCEPT RECOVERY), please email your Disaster Relief ministry leader and let them know of your availability.
