Standing Together After the Flood
By now, you’ve likely heard about the devastating flooding that struck our community — claiming lives, displacing families, and leaving a path of heartbreak and destruction throughout the Hill Country. As part of the body of Christ in this region, we at Commission Ministers Network believe God has placed us here for such a time as this — not just to watch, but to serve.
We are partnering with local churches and trusted Christian leaders across Kerrville to assist in both immediate cleanup efforts and long-term recovery. Every gift we receive will go directly to help those affected — including support to churches we know personally and trust to steward resources with integrity and compassion.
This is a time for the Church to rise in love, unity and action. Thank you for standing with us.
