Relief work at the church

This has been rough. It will continue to be rough. It is awesome to see people respond compassionately.
The Red Cross has set up it's relief station here at the church. It's been pretty amazing to witness the immediate and significant response.
Our Main office ladies have been fielding calls from people seeking to volunteer, offer their equipment, and donations. The phones are ringing off the hook!
Our Aux gym is set up with cots and food for those with no place to sleep.
Outside is a tent containing stray pets that have been picked up.
In our YMC, people are coming in to sign up to volunteer.

It's a pretty awesome sight...
