Join the Disaster Relief Ministry
Disasters can happen at any time, and when they do, BUMC is prepared to help in any way we can. Our Disaster Relief Ministry is recruiting volunteers for our leadership team to guide the vision of this ministry and our response strategy as well as volunteers interested in receiving Early Response Training to be able to provide on-the-ground relief with UMCOR after a disaster. Contact missions@bumc.net to learn more.
BUMC's disaster response strategy includes three areas in which to minister:
- PRAY – Pray for the people affected by the disaster
- GIVE – Donate as you are able to the BUMC Disaster Relief Fund, which will go directly to relief efforts
- SERVE – We will keep you updated as service opportunities become available
