More help is needed today!

I praise the Lord for how He is using the Bible Center family to touch lives with the love of Jesus. Our offering for Disaster Relief so far is over $70,000.

We will continue to take gifts to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina indefinitely. If you have not given or would like to give again, simply make your check payable to Bible Center Church and put “disaster relief” in the memo. All of the monies we receive will go directly to the disaster relief fund of the North American Mission Board (NAMB) of the Southern Baptist Convention. NAMB uses 100% of what they receive for direct disaster relief in coordination with the Red Cross, the Salvation Army, and FEMA as they seek to show and share Christ’s love.

The two truckloads of relief items we gathered Sunday for Mississippi have arrived and have been distributed. As you read this posting, victims of the hurricane are using those supplies. Lee Waler, our Church Administrator, is in McComb, Mississippi today and reports that their response to our help has been emotional and overwhelming. They need more now!

We are asking that items be brought today – Tuesday September 6th - to Bible Center from 4:00 this afternoon to 8:00 tonight. The truck will then leave as soon as it is loaded.

Specifically they have asked for NON-PERISHABLE FOOD ITEMS AND DIAPERS. Let me stress that again: They have need now for NON-PERISHABLE FOOD ITEMS AND DIAPERS.

Whether or not you brought items Sunday, here is another opportunity for you and your family to get directly involved in the relief effort. We will keep you updated on our efforts at BibleCenterChurch.com.

Thank you for your part in helping hurting people in Jesus’ name!
