All people are created in God's image and God desires wholeness for creation. As Christians, we are called through God's word to show compassion by responding to human need and suffering. As Presbyterians, we work together with other members of the Body of Christ, empowering local church ministry before, during and after disaster strikes. We are called to work with others across cultural and faith boundaries in crisis situations, while witnessing to our own faith. We are committed to a response that meets the physical, spiritual, and emotional needs of disaster survivors.
