Long-term Recovery Continues in 2025
In partnership with CrossRoads Missions of Louisville, First Christian Princeton continues to host long-term recovery teams to rebuild our communities following the devastating tornadoes in December 2021 and May 2024. There are opportunities for skilled and unskilled volunteers, families, and youth groups. https://www.crossroadsmissions.com/multi-day-opportunities/wky/
And, Week of Compassion and Second Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) of Mayfield have begun a two-year partnership and called Tineka Fitzgerald to serve as the new Disaster Response and Resilience Coordinator. Read more about this unique collaboration on page six of The Kentucky Christian.
We are so thankful for the generosity we have experienced in the wake of the tornadoes. Your gifts to the Week of Compassion and to the West Area Tornado Fund have allowed impacted members to receive Household Solidarity Grants and churches to receive Congregational and Community Solidarity Grants. Thank you for your support of Week of Compassion and of our West Area churches and communities.
