The Samaritan’s Purse is in Grand Forks to help with recovery efforts, but could use a hand Saturday. A Disaster Relief team is set up at the River Valley Community Church. Pastor Gabe Warriner says they’re helpful and knowledgeable
He adds it’s important residents aren’t stuck doing the work themselves as it takes a lot more time.
Volunteer efforts have dropped since the “sandbagging phase”.
They’re hoping for at least 100 volunteers this Saturday.
Warriner adds Samaritan’s Purse has a plane that drops off more personnel weekly. They mostly need help with physical labour. If interested you should meet at the River Valley Community Church (2826 75th Ave) at 7:30AM or 1PM.
