Subject: Katrina Hurricane information on MCC website 

 

MCC now has posted a web page with more information on the response to
Katrina Hurrican evacuees.  Included are:

 

Theology of hospitality.

Worship resources.

Questions to ask first, before offering to help.

Check list for churches as they offer assistance.

What to include in a "memo of understanding" between an evacuee and a
congregation as the congregation hosts the evacuee.

How to work with social services.

Suggestions for working with dignity and "doing no harm" as churches
respond.

MCC and MDS coordinated response.
