Hurricane Katrina Relief Aid | Home Repair | Volunteer Opportunities | Disaster Recovery | Open Churches | Church of Christ
Description
OpenChurches.com was born in the wake of Hurricane Katrina to serve as a clearing house for matching affected people in need of short-term housing, long-term housing or help repairing their damaged homes with Christian churches and members able to meet their needs. Churches can learn more about how to help by clicking here.
The idea for OpenChurches.com was conceived by members of the Brentwood Hills Church of Christ in Nashville, Tennessee. Like everyone watching the horrific images on television in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, these Christians asked themselves, "What can we do?" They knew there were hundreds and thousands of Christian congregations eager and able to help, but faced the reality that there was no real mechanism tying them all together.
OpenChurches.com provides an incredible opportunity for Christian congregations of all denominations, traditions, backgrounds and demographics to unite behind a common purpose in the name of our common Lord Jesus Christ.
