:: Washington Wildfires
The State of Washington, for the first time in its history, is seeking "Red Card" volunteer firefighters and "Blue Card" volunteer equipment operators to help fight the largest group of wildfires in the state's history. »If you have appropriate volunteer credentials, King 5 news shares information for contacting two temporary community resource coordination centers in Omak and Colville.
For long-term help via Washington Adventist Community and Disaster Response, you are welcome to volunteer to participate in the Community Rebuilding Mission Trip planned for October 25-November 2. Northwest Adventists will be working with faith-based organizations to help families in Chelan and Okanogan counties to rebuild homes from last year's fire and help with recovery from this year's fire. »Complete a volunteer interest form if you would like to help ACS Disaster Response with this Northwest mission project!
Dear Jesus - May You intervene in these wildfires to bring Your showers of blessing through the right weather conditions, the right professionals and volunteers, the right care for families and businesses, and the right attitude of service and compassion. Amen.
