Yesterday several of us were present for folks in the St. James UMC neighborhood as “triage” pastoral care. This was very necessary.
This morning about 8 others went into this same neighborhood about 3 hours after people were let into their homes. We were particularly focused on the St. James congregation (because Beth Straw called us in) and because we believed others were helping elsewhere. We will be sending these types of groups from St. Mark’s UMC and FUMC Marion at 9:30 AM each of the next two days. All clergy are invited to come and be deployed in this task.
Long term care is being put in place through a consortium funneling into the Iowa Disaster Human Resource Council.
