Oregon Synod Disaster & Climate Resilience

The Oregon Synod Disaster Response Program is leading the work to help Oregon Synod congregations and the Oregon Synod office to be better prepared to meet the challenges that will come with natural and man-made disasters. From the Cascadia subduction zone earthquake, to wildfires, pandemics, and flooding every person and ministry in the synod has the opportunity to help themselves, their family and friends, church, and community to be more engaged and make plans that will reduce suffering and the social, economic, and spiritual impacts that these disasters can have.

The multi-denominational work of the program focuses in two areas:

1. Formation and guiding of the Oregon Synod Disaster & Climate Resilience Team
2. Formation and support of the Oregon Synod Disaster Response Network
