Responding to these hurting people is a vital part of who we are as members of the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS).  We show mercy and love to our communities because of the great grace and love that God has first shown to us. Trinity’s Lutheran Early Response Team (L.E.R.T.) trains to be prepared to show Christ’s love to the community when a disaster strikes.
As our community has been blessed, our need for disaster response is less than support within our community. Trinity’s L.E.R.T. Team has transitioned to assisting members and local neighbors in need with small build projects (such as ramps or minor home repairs) deemed necessary by Departments of Health and Human Services.
Here are three ways you can help Trinity’s L.E.R.T Team:
1. Pray for L.E.R.T. as they work to assist those in need.
2. Volunteer your time to assist those disaster victims by training and showing your Christian compassion and mercy with dirty hands and a smiling face.
3. Support the Trinity L.E.R.T. Team with funding.  As with all disasters, you hear the call for monetary donations.  Money enables L.E.R.T. to help those in need by strategically placing the funds where needed most.
