Haiti Relief Effort

The reports of widespread devastation are overwhelming and the suffering beyond our comprehension.  316 Church is partnering with Mercy Chefs by taking a special offering three Sundays (1/24,1/31, & 2/7) to help relief efforts in Haiti.

Mercy Chefs is a non-profit, faith based, charitable organization committed to serving high quality professionally prepared meals in disasters and national emergencies, recruiting and training volunteers and providing food service support to the activities of other disaster relief and faith based organizations.  

From the Mercy Chefs web-site: Mercy Chefs shows Christian compassion and hospitality by serving victims, first responders and volunteers. To accomplish this we have acquired efficient mobile kitchen equipment and resources and are prepared for a multiple location rapid response capability.  We train church based volunteer groups in support of this mission, engage Christian hospitality industry professionals as Mercy Chefs and have developed strategic alliances with supporting organizations.  We also support other faith based agencies in their work and have well established partnerships with many other faith based disaster relief agencies. Most importantly we are dedicated to exemplifying Christian compassion and mercy while conforming to the highest standards of integrity and professionalism. 

Please continue to pray for those affected and for provision for those who will respond. For more information on Mercy Chefs go to www.mercychefs.com
