As you know Hurricane Helene caused massive devastation to many people and communities on the East Coast, particularly in North Carolina. We have had many people asking for a recommendation for a good, trustworthy place to provide financial assistance to those affected. The North Carolina Baptist State Convention has a very robust Disaster Relief Team in place that go to disasters around the country. They were on the ground within hours of this disaster in multiple places, and will be there for a long, long time. Below you will find a link to give financially if you are so inclined. Shadow Mountain Church just wanted to give you one reputable place to give. Of course, if you are unable to give in this manner, the even more important need is prayer. Hope this helps you as you seek to help.

Empty Shoeboxes and labels will be provided. In addition, you will have the opportunity to include the 12 week discipleship program entitled "The Greatest Journey" for $6. This program has seen millions of children give their lives to Christ! The cost to send each shoebox including The Greatest Journey is $16.
Finally, we will be hosting a packing party at the church to pack and pray for the 156 shoeboxes on November 23rd from 2 to 4 pm. Please join us for this celebration!
