Presbyterian Disaster Assistance (PDA) continues to reach out to communities affected by recent tornadoes and storms. One Great Hour of Sharing and designated funds have been provided, and members of the National Response Team (NRT) have gone to affected areas to help Presbyterian leadership as they determine how best to meet the needs of their communities. PDA assistance includes spiritual and emotional care, help with needs assessments, work in forming long-term recovery committees, and evaluating possible sites to host volunteer work teams.
