Storm Recovery Efforts
Our Concord Baptist efforts will be with church and associational partners in western North Carolina. Thank you for joining the efforts!
Please help in one or more of the areas below.
Ways to help
There are several different ways to help provide storm recovery to the people affected by Hurricane Helene. Whether you are praying, giving, or going, you will have an impact on sharing the Light of the World to a community that is grieving, struggling, and beginning to recover. The road to recovery is not short and quick, but it is a long marathon. Concord's goal is to support this recovery effort through it's entirety, with opportunities to serve over the next several months.
Thank you for being willing to support the physcial needs for the community of Western North Carolina! The direct churches and organizations that we are partnering with have requested the following items, please adhere to this collection list for the most recent needs.
Thank you for your generosity! All money marked for Global Missions at Concord during the month of October will be given to our Concord Baptist North Carolina Storm Relief efforts.
