Alabama Tornado Relief Planning

The team got together for a planning and orientation meeting on Oct. 4th.  Team members include 3 from Shenendehowa UMC, 2 from Burnt Hills UMC, 3 for Nimmonsburg UMC, 2 from First Schenectady UMC, 1 from Community Church of Cohoes, and 1 from Trinity Church in Wilton.  We are looking forward to helping the people of Jackson and DeKalb counties rebuild after the devastating tornados last spring.  From Oct. 23-29, we will be working with teams from other denominations and from other parts of the country.  We will be hosted by the Asbury UMC in Fort Payne, AL.  We will go, serve, and find other Altars in the World.  Even though we leave our comfort zones, we will find new friends, learn new ways to serve, and take time to live our faith.  Please pray for our team.
