Lutheran Early Response TeamWhen disaster strikes, lives are turned upside down. Survivors often need food,

clothing, shelter and spiritual care as they begin to cope with tragedy and loss.

Responding to these hurting people is a vital part of who we are as members of The

Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. We show mercy and love to our communities

because of the great grace and love that God has first shown us. Join a Lutheran

Early Response Team (LERT) training event to learn how you can be better prepared

to show Christ’s love to the community when a disaster strikes. The next training event will be held on Saturday,

January 31, 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. at Concordia University, Seward, NE. For more information, contact Kim at the

District Office (888-643-2961, ext 1014 or kimh@ndlcms.org)
