EMERGENCY & DISASTER RELIEF
"The Lord is near to the brokenhearted, and saves the crushed in spirit." - Psalm 34:18
How you can help
Pray for those affected and for the relief and recovery efforts.
Donate to our Emergency and Disaster Relief Fund. HPUMC maintains a disaster response fund that enables us to respond quickly in times of unexpected need. We work with churches and partner agencies in affected areas to ensure funds go directly to relief efforts.
Our hearts are broken over serious conflicts and disasters arising globally. Together, we are praying for peace in war-torn regions, as well as healing and protection for those affected by war, natural disasters, poverty, and injustice in all its forms. Please join us in lifting up prayers for our broken world, knowing that true restoration and healing comes from God.
HPUMC is responding by partnering with local churches and organizations and with UMCOR, as they work with faith leaders and disaster response organizations, providing humanitarian assistance to alleviate human suffering.
Please contact Caroline Hazlett at hazlettc@hpumc.org for more information.
