Disaster Response Team volunteers needed
St. Luke’s is preparing to be available as needs arise. The local church is the best early response for the community’s immediate needs.
If Central Florida is hit by a large storm this year, St. Luke’s Disaster Response teams will be immediately mobilized. Whether you can help make Congregational Care calls, help clean up or do light repairs on campus, at homes of our congregation members or in the community. we need a team ready to respond if a storm hits our area.
We hope it will be a quiet season and won’t need to activate our disaster response teams, but we do need to be prepared!
If you would like more information, please contact serve@st.lukes.org.
