As a part of our mission to be a caring Christian presence in the aftermath of disaster, we have found ways to expand our disaster recovery and relief efforts to help communities with COVID-19 response by donating personal protective equipment to hospitals<\/a> and volunteering at COVID-19 vaccination centers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Al Miller, Director of Disaster Ministries, and Ann Huffman, Conference Disaster Response Coordinator, have worked with health care providers to provide non-medical volunteers for vaccination clinics in Cumberland County and Johnston County. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In February, Disaster Ministries and our Early Response Team members volunteered with Cape Fear Valley Health<\/a> at a two-day community clinic at E.E. Smith High School. The non-medical volunteers assisted with registrations and directing traffic. Many of the volunteers returned to help at the following community clinic in February and throughout March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
