Samaritan’s Purse
Samaritan’s Purse has now mobilized in Whatcom County to serve families impacted by the recent, devastating floods. With many having lost so much—especially so close to Christmas—volunteers are already on the ground helping families begin the long road to recovery and reminding them they are not alone.
As we move through this season of giving, we’re reminded that Christ stepped into a broken world to bring hope—and that same hope is being shared through hands-on service and compassionate care.
If you’d like to get involved, you can volunteer at SPVolunteer.org or learn more and give at SamaritansPurse.org.
