Well, I made it to California. The work that we are going to be doing here is a very large undertaking. We are setting up a tent city to do all of the following.
As normal we will be distributing food, cleaning supplies, cloths, cleaning damaged homes and helping rebuild. Here at the tent city we will also have 2 shower trailers, a laundry trailer, portable toilets, large tents with A/C setup for the families who's homes were burnted, play ground, pet kennell, activities for the kids, church services and entertainment each Saturday night and providing 3 meals each day. I will be taking my 5th wheel there and be on site 24/7. At the registration table we will be giving people wrist bands. Green will be full access to the city. Yellow access to supplies, shower and laundry area. Red for picking up supplies only. Below was taken from the DRT's web page.
WE ARE WORKING WITH THE SAN DIEGO AREA CONGREGATIONS FOLLOWING THE RECENT WILDFIRES.
DRT IS IN THE PROCESS OF SETTING UP A "TENT CITY" IN THE COMMUNITY OF BARRETT JUNCTION, CA. WE WILL BE SERVICING THE COMMUNITIES OF BARRETT JUNCTION, DULZERA AND PETRERO. ALL THE SUPPLIES AND EQUIPMENT FOR THIS HAVE BEEN DONATED.
WE WILL BE SERVING 3 MEALS A DAY, A LAUNDRY TRAILER AND SHOWER TRAILERS HAVE BEEN SET UP. WE WILL ALSO HAVE STRUCTED ACTIVITIES FOR THE CHILDREN. MEMBERS OF THE SAN DIEGO CONGREGATIONS WILL BE HERE TO MEET AND GET TO KNOW THE FIRE SURVIVORS. WE WILL ALSO START HAVING WORSHIP SERVICES HERE ON SITE.
THIS IS AN AREA OF MANY HOMES THAT HAVE BEEN BURNT, THE HOMEOWNERS HAVE NO INSURANCE AND NO MEANS TO REBUILD. OUR GOAL IS TO REACH OUT TO THEM SPIRITUALLY AS WELL AS PHYSICALLY.
IF YOU ARE ABLE TO HELP WITH THIS DISASTER, WE ARE IN NEED OF YOUR PRAYERS AND VOLUNTEERS TO HELP IN TENT CITY AS WELL AS CLEAN UP AND REBUILDING OF HOUSES. FUNDING IS DESPERATELY NEEDED TO HELP WITH FOOD FOR THE COMMUNITIES, HOUSEHOLD SUPPLIES AND FOR PURCHASING BUILDING MATERIAL.
