Disaster Recovery Assistance Ministry
W
hen a local disaster strikes, be it a nat-
ural disaster or one caused by human
error, Catholic Charities responds with sup-
plies and financial assistance, if available. The
deacons involved in this ministry go to the
scene and assist with the spiritual needs of the
victims, first responders, and others involved.
The team of deacons coordinating this minis-
try build and maintain a roster of deacons able
to assist in time of need.
Deacons work with the Red Cross and Cath-
olic Charities, to create partnerships with pas-
tors to assign parishes as evacuation centers
during these disasters.
