Thank you for the donations and help for Waverly flood relief last week. First Christian Church was a drop off center during the early part of the week and the Tullahoma and Manchester Fire Departments coordinated efforts to take the donations to Waverly.

Our compassion calls us to action. As a church we unite our efforts through the Week of Compassion, which the website reminds us “is more than a week. It is a ministry of the whole Church, reaching those in need “around the world, around the year.” Any time we respond to a need in the world, we bear witness to the unity of our table, faithfully sharing the gifts that we have as an expression of Christ’s love. In working together with partners, we represent the Disciples of Christ commitment to unity, making our resources reach farther and growing our impact on a global scale.”

You can make donations to the Week of Compassion directly on their website or through the church office. These donations will insure those affected by the flood and those affected by Hurricane Ida will have the assistance they need.
