LOOKING FOR A SERVANT OPPORTUNITY? Consider becoming part of the St. Marks Early Response Team!
Saturday, June 1st (9 am – 5 pm), in the CLC
The mission of United Methodist Disaster Response in the Mississippi Conference is to
provide a caring Christian presence in the aftermath of a disaster that begins with
response and ends with long term recovery. Early response teams (ERTs) are deployed
to assist with clean-up and other tasks needed by the community in the period right after
the disaster (once the area has been declared safe by first responders).
St. Marks will host an UMCOR Early Response Team basic training event on
Saturday, June 1, in the CLC from 9 to 5. You will be trained in the phases of
disaster response, specific tasks undertaken in disaster response and on how to
interact with disaster victims.
The cost of the course is $40 and includes lunch, background check, t-shirt,
and ERT credentials. Registration must be made on the Mississippi United
Methodist Conference website at link below.
