Bringing hope to the hopeless

When we arrive with a feeding unit, a team of smiling volunteers who bring words of hope and a nutritious meal, survivors feel that someone cares; they will not have to wonder about their next meal. When a family whose home and possessions have been destroyed by flood, wind, or fire sees a team of caring people in gold hats and shirts removing mountains of debris, they begin to see the possibilities for a new beginning. Suddenly, what seemed hopeless and impossible starts looking like a plan with a purpose. And most importantly, the question “Where is God when I need Him?” is transformed into belief, “God is here, and He cares for me.”

We Bring Help

When disasters happen, people and communities find themselves in immediate need of basic necessities: food, water, shelter, electricity, and fuel, etc. Our network of volunteers and equipment makes it possible for CSBDRM to respond quickly anywhere in California, the United States and many places worldwide.

We Bring Hope

As Colossians 1:27 says, “God wanted to make known among the Gentiles the glorious wealth of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.” Bringing help may open the door to sharing the hope of eternal life through Jesus Christ. Ministry may prepare the soil for planting the seed of the gospel. This is our most significant work because it leads to eternal results.

We Bring Healing

Just the simple act of listening to those affected by disaster initiates the healing process. Usually, the survivor’s greatest immediate need is having someone listen to their story. LISTEN to their story.
