January 28, 2025– Thank you so much to all of you who have prayed, given financially, and served to help partner with MNA Disaster Response in bringing the love of Jesus to those affected by Hurricane Helene. On January 25 after four months of full-time service in Western North Carolina we are closing our volunteer staging site at Arden Presbyterian. The church has been an amazing and gracious host, and we praise God for their willingness to dedicate their multi-purpose building to our volunteer teams; what a blessing they have been! We celebrate the ways God has blessed the work of His servants. Hundreds of families have been helped and encouraged as a result of their service, both for our PCA family as well as the larger community. To God be the glory, great things He has done!

We now are entering the next phase of the disaster response which will take the approach of trying to meet further needs as they arise. This is the normal flow of a disaster, from the initial response (bringing stability to a disaster impacted community) to recovery. Most of this work will be handled by local volunteers, but there may be an occasional need for outside volunteers. Teams that are interested in serving will be put on a list and we will notify teams if future opportunities for service are available in the coming months. Please pray that the Holy Spirit would lead and guide us to know His will for future ministry in Western North Carolina, and thanks again for your partnership with MNA Disaster Response.
