As Disaster Relief teams share a cup of water in Jesus name, how is their service viewed by the general public? Do victims of natural disasters appreciate being served by groups like Southern Baptist Disaster Relief? How does the public perceive the gospel message shared in conjunction with home repairs, emergency food assistance, and shelter for evacuees?

In the Spring of 2007, many residents of Maine and New Hampshire

were hit yet again within 9 months by devastating flood waters.

Stirred by the outpouring of love by Disaster Relief workers in Maine,

one homeowner by the name of Beatrice Verrier sent a donation

check to the Disaster Relief fund at the BCNE with a note that simply

said:  "I am sending this donation, as sort of saying 'Thank You' for all

you've done to help me. God bless you all."

 

We would say... 

Thank you, Jesus Christ, for the privilege of serving in Your name!
