The Mennonite Disaster Service

Restoring Newton, Texas for Four Years!

What is the Mennonite Disaster Service? Who are these people that came to Newton for 4 years following the disaster caused by Rita? Their website gives a full description but their mission is as follows:

Mennonite Disaster Service is a volunteer network through which various constituencies of the Anabaptist church can respond to those affected by disasters in Canada and the United States.

While our main focus is on clean up, repair and rebuilding homes, this activity becomes a means of touching lives and helping people regain faith and wholeness.
