Illinois Baptist Disaster Relief

Venezuela Earthquakes Response Give to help local churches respond to the Venezuela earthquakes. Send Relief is partnering with Venezuelan Baptists to provide urgent help and eternal hope to families in crisis.

IBDR will begin work in Charleston, Illinois, first thing Monday morning, June 22. All Blue Hats are asked to begin assembling teams. Yellow Hats who do not have a team should contact me, and I will connect you with one.

A significant amount of work is expected, with more than 30 jobs already assessed. Incident Command, housing, and feeding will be located at Charleston Baptist Church in Charleston.

We look forward to seeing everyone as we offer hope, help, and healing.

IBDR Volunteer Update on Charleston Callout
We still have not received final confirmation for all of our teams to go into Charleston, IL, but we will be allowed to bring assessors and two small chainsaw teams in on Friday afternoon and Saturday. We would like all other teams to be on site Monday morning. We will meet at Charleston Baptist Church and receive work assignments at that time.
