With impending storms headed into the state, Tennessee Baptist Disaster Relief volunteers are now on alert, as of 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday.
Wes Jones, disaster relief specialist for the Tennessee Baptist Mission Board, is asking volunteers to “please be on guard as the chance of storms is growing.”
Jones said volunteers and DR team leaders should stayed tuned to their local weather sources and should “take care of (their) family first.”
“When the storm passes and it is safe,” Jones said, “and you hear of damage in your area, please go and assess to see if there is need for a response.”
Jones said that if there are local teams that can respond, they should begin to do so.
Volunteers who have information — or questions — can contact TBDR office by e-mailing Jones at wjones@tnbaptist.org or Elizabeth Holmes at eholmes@tnbaptist.org.
Jones asked that volunteers “Be sure to use FormStack if your team deploys,” and that they “be safe and make sure you share Christ as you go.”
