"We mobilize to become a tangible expression of love ...connecting and coordinating with the local community and church before and after disaster."

 

Preparation & Training

Preparation & Training

We recognize that for individuals and the Church to effectively respond in times of need they must be prepared spiritually and practically.  Whether it is for individuals or groups, we can facilitate training or, in some instances link you with those that offer more in-depth training.

If you are interested in more information, please email us at vickie@risetothetime.org.

 

 

 

Mobile & Community Outreach

Mobile & Community Outreach

As the Somebody Cares Mobile Outreach Center, we can rapidly respond to disasters across the nation and serve local churches and communities affected.  After assessing needs, we coordinate assistance to meet those needs with resources through the greater Somebody Cares/Global Compassion Response Network.
As volunteer teams desire to serve, we assist them in making connections and match teams with local needs so that they can spend precious time completing assignments and not experiencing lag time in their efforts.

In addition to disasters, some of the elderly, disabled and many single parent families in our community struggle to meet the challenges of simple everyday homeowner repairs and maintenance that occur regularly. Our heart and desire is to connect local churches and businesses in our city with those in need to offer aid. We hope to plan regular outreaches and connect individuals and families with volunteers to help with minor repairs and maintenance that they are unable to do without assistance.

Mission Teams & Trips

Mission Teams & Trips

Mission teams providing outside assistance are a blessing not only shortly after a disaster but even long after the immediate response is over.

As Doug Stringer, founder of Somebody Cares America, says, “Relationships define our destiny,” and we find great joy by taking teams to locations where we have served and continue to have relationships.

Some of the elderly, disabled and many single parent families in our community struggle to meet the challenges of simple everyday homeowner repairs and maintenance that occur regularly. Our heart and desire is to connect local churches and businesses in our city with those in need to offer aid. Beginning in 2018 we plan to offer regular outreaches and connect individuals and families with volunteers to help with minor repairs and maintenance that they are unable to do without assistance.
