POJ’s Disaster Relief Ministry is organizing a return trip to New Bern, North Carolina in early June to continue aiding the area in recovering from Hurricane Florence. Volunteers of all skill levels are desired.
The trip is June 1-8. The group will leave from Southminster Church, which is providing logistics and accounting support. In North Carolina, the team will stay at West New Bern Presbyterian Church.

- Develop new skills.

New participants should plan to attend an orientation meeting on May 22 at 6 p.m.
