Texas Disaster Relief

Texas Baptist Men trains volunteers and coordinates efforts in providing prompt assistance to disaster victims. First Baptist Church Odessa is in the process of building a fully-equipped mobile disaster relief Chainsaw Unit and works to coordinate with the Regional units throughout the state that relate to TBM to provide emergency services.

Disaster assistance is also provided by the Texas Baptist Men in the form of:

• Mobile Clean-Out unit

• Emergency Feeding unit

• Emergency repair unit

• Temporary Emergency Child Care unit

• Shower and Laundry units

• Mobile Incident Command units and support equipment

Texas Baptist Men have been involved in disaster relief in Texas and around the world since 1967. TBM places priority on this ministry to provide quick response and emergency support in times of disaster by providing:

• Hot Meals

• Drinkable Water

• Recovery of Homes

• Emergency Repair of Churches

• Emergency Child Care services

• Shower and Laundry services

• Disaster Relief Chaplains and Counselors

• Personal Witness for Christ

Please understand that we will not be able to respond to a disaster if we do not have the volunteers to do so.

How Can You Help?

• Pray

• Receive Disaster Relief Training

• Volunteer to Serve on a Disaster Team

• Spread the Word

• Get Your Church Ready for Disasters

• Give Financially

By their very nature, disasters are unpredictable, unscheduled and therefore unbudgeted. We rely totally upon God’s provisions to meet the needs during disasters. Will you prayerfully consider how you can join God in His activities?
