Holston Conference issued a call for Cleaning Kits,  Hygiene Kits and monetary donations to restock for supplies which had been depleted by recent disasters (hurricanes)

If your church plans to assemble kits, they may be delivered to the Three Rivers District Ministry Center.  It is always a good idea to call ahead of time to make certain someone is in the office to accept your delivery.
