Volunteers needed to help tornado victims

The Columbia Christian Church Band of Brothers (and Sisters welcome) Mission Team is working with International Disaster Emergency Services (IDES) to assist victims of the December 2021 tornadoes. So much is needed.

Richard Phelps, Ben Ballou, Nathan Ballou, Adam Shepherd, Craig Watson and Bobby Morrison went right after the storms and plan a second trip soon.

They invite any to join them who would like to help. The schedule is being planned now.

The way to get involved is to go to the website: ides.volunteerlocal.com/volunteer.

That site gives all the details. They prefer teams to arrive on Sunday and leave on Friday/Saturday. There are also opportunities for daily work.
