In the chaos of disaster, it's important to stay focused on the task at hand. This training will help you focus on the most important thing to remember as you prepare to respond to a disaster in your community or beyond. At the center of our LERT Volunteer training is one thing: MERCY! Christ's mercy is the basis for everything we say and do. This training event will equip you to be an effective volunteer should a disaster strike your community. After a brief introduction regarding the goals and theological rationale of LCMS Disaster Response, the LERT volunteer training will address the following:
*Christian care in times of disaster
*A Ministry of Presence
*The LERT Program and how it works with other responders
*Introduction to Disaster Response
*Service Opportunities after a Disaster & Safety Protocol
